Learn how to winter sow native seeds using a container made from a recycled gallon jug. This method allows seeds to get an early start in a miniature diy greenhouse. Winter sown seedlings are hardy and easy to transplant in the spring after frost.
Registration is $5 and includes materials to make one seed starting container with the native species of your choice. Additional containers will be available for $5 each. The available native species are purple coneflower (Echinacea purpurea), butterfly weed (Asclepias tuberosa), and swamp milkweed (Asclepias incarnata).
