It’s a field trip, cookout, plant sale and tour! Everyone is invited to the permaculture garden for a cookout and “ragged” plant sale. Please note this will be held on a Thursday evening! The cookout begins at 6pm at the garden at the Church of the Good Shepherd located at 9441 Grayson Pkwy, Galax, VA 24333., please bring a side dish to share. This will be followed by a tour of the garden and the plant sale beginning about 6:45pm. It is not necessary to attend the potluck to tour the garden. The plant sale will feature recently divided plants from the garden, not new seedlings. The permaculture garden features a wide array of native plants and most are excellent for pollinators as well. All proceeds from the sale go to support the Permaculture garden.
The Permaculture group will also be hosting a Composting and Water catchment workshop Saturday June 21 from 10am to noon at the Permaculture garden. There is no charge for this informative workshop. Contact permaculture@graysonlandcare.org for more information. The rescheduled Herbal workshop will also be held June 21 from 10-noon. There is a $10 fee to cover the cost of supplies for making a salve and tincture. We’ll also make a tea and eat a salad of foraged plants.
All Grayson LandCare presentations are free and open to the public unless noted otherwise. For more information about Grayson LandCare visit the webpage, graysonlandcare.org, email director@graysonlandcare or call 276-768-0597.
