Planting in the Garden

Woodward Point Preserve, 219 Woodward Point Rd, Brunswick, ME Oct 22 | 3:00 p.m. – 4:30 p.m. Want to learn how to plant a native garden from scratch and get your hands dirty while you’re at it? Wild Seed Project and Maine Coast Heritage Trust are teaming up to offer a hands-on planting workshop at Woodward Point Preserve. You’ll learn how to convert a lawn into garden beds using the tried-and-true sheet mulching method, apply some simple “cues to care” design principles, and practice planting a variety of native perennials. In the process, you’ll help create a pollinator-friendly Community Seed Garden, and you’ll leave with the confidence and tools to embark on your own native planting. Please park in the large parking lot behind the barn. Free. Please register in advance. Questions? For more information, please email Kat O’Connor.
