Have you ever wanted to grow your own fruits, vegetables, or herbs but weren’t sure where to start? Join us for a free, hands-on gardening workshop and learn practical ways to grow delicious, healthy food at home. Whether you have a backyard, a small patio, or just a sunny balcony, you’ll learn tips for planning and caring for a garden in any space.

Together we’ll cover:

• How to read seed packets, nursery labels, and plant guides
• Seasonal gardening basics – from composting and pruning to watering and pest control
• The best fruits, vegetables, and herbs to grow in our Bay Area climate year-round

Come learn, connect, and grow with your community. Everyone is welcome—no experience (or backyard) required!

Presented by: Jill Sowards, Gardener & Owner of Violetear Studio

Jill teaches classes and workshops on a range of gardening and design topics throughout the bay are and online. No matter the subject, her focus is always on ecological gardening practices and celebrating the beauty of the natural world.
