    Curious about native plant gardening? Want to learn more about this rapidly growing movement? Unsure about where to begin or what all the fuss is about?

    This workshop will provide an introduction for native-plant-gardening beginners.

    We will begin with a brief discussion about the critical nature (pun intended) of native plants and how to incorporate them into your home garden. The workshop will then continue with a tour of a GNPS-gold-certified garden where participants can ask questions and see examples of native plants.

    At the end of the workshop, participants will go home with a selection of complimentary native plants so they can begin their native gardening journey right away.

    100% of workshop fees will go to supporting the Intown Chapter of the Georgia Native Plant Society.

    Participants must be at least 16 years old.

    This workshop will be outside among plants, uneven terrain and possible stinging insects.

    Cost: $15
