Library of Local, Back to Nature: Seed Starting Essentials and Seed Swap

  • Sunday, March 17, 2024, 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM

Roe Jan Community Library, in partnership with the Cornell Cooperative Extension of Columbia and Greene Counties, is sponsoring a series of three "Back to Nature" seminars conducted by Master Gardener Volunteers who are all well-versed in their subject matter.

Starting your own seeds indoors is fun to do and can also be very cost effective. During this presentation you will learn about seed starting essentials, best practices for successful germination of seeds, caring for seedlings and then how to transition the seedlings into the garden in the spring. You will also learn about resources and get to examine several kinds of containers and supplies used for seed starting.

This program will be presented by Maureen Mooney, who has been a Master Gardener as part of the Columbia and Greene Counties Volunteer organization for twelve years. Maureen has always had a passion for growing vegetables/herbs and flowers since childhood. She is a retired nurse who loves to grow and dry flowers for bouquets or wreaths to share with others. She grows her own vegetable and flowers organically and also, year-round. There is always something to harvest.

After the presentation we will be holding a seed swap. So please bring your favorite seeds that you would like to share!
