CANCELLED – Pre-register: Mindful Gardening

PLEASE CALL 665-4683 TO PRE-REGISTER. LIMITED TO 12 STUDENTS.

Part of the Libraries in the Woods (a Franklin County library collaboration) 2020 Community Read of Braiding Sweetgrass:

Celebrate the start of spring with a workshop focused on reconnecting to the earth through gardening and garden planning. Learn the essentials about starting and maintaining a home vegetable, flower, and herb garden. Spend some time dreaming
up your garden and mapping out the specifics of what it will look like and the action steps you will take to get it growing. Get your hands dirty by starting some spring seeds to take home. Woven throughout the workshop will be mindfulness practices to ground our time together in the healing properties of the natural world. Connecting to the earth through gardening can be a way to come home to ourselves and the sacred. As Robin Wall
Kimmerer writes in Braiding Sweetgrass;
“The land is the real teacher. All we
need as students is mindfulness.”
