Instructor: Megan Brame | Friday, January 17 | 6:30-8:30 PM | 719 N Mangum St, Durham, NC

Learn how to utilize the easiest seed-starting method called "Winter Sowing.” With this method, seeds are started in translucent jugs (ie. 1 gallon milk, juice or water jugs), that serve as mini-greenhouses, and are placed in the shade outside to let nature work its magic. The jugs protect seedlings from pests, allows for the necessary cold-moist stratification, and results in a high germination rate. We will cover all of the basics, including benefits, materials, timing, common pitfalls, etc. Free milkweed seeds will be provided. 

The sign-up form is standard for all of our classes. If any fields are not applicable to you or this class, please put “N/A.”

This class will take place in person at Night School Bar in Durham. Night School requires that students refrain from attending in-person classes when sick. For more on our class policies, see our FAQ. Instructors will also follow this policy. If your instructor is sick, class may be moved to online for a session or rescheduled to the week following the final scheduled session at the instructor’s discretion.
