Wild Ones of Greater Cleveland is teaming up with Lorain County Conservation District to offer this cost-effective, low-maintenance way to add native plants to your landscape!

Winter sowing is an outdoor seed-starting technique that requires just two things: miniature greenhouses and Mother Nature. Join us for this informative workshop to learn more about winter sowing, and create your own mini-greenhouse of native plants to take home. Please bring 1 (or 2) clear, clean gallon milk jug(s). All other supplies will be provided. We'll be in the Lorain County Ag Center's Conference Room.

What you'll learn:

--How to turn recycled gallon jugs into mini greenhouses

--Winter sowing as a low cost seed starting technique

--Why cold stratification makes your seeds stronger

--Choosing the correct seeds
