Thyme to Grow Your Own Herbs Workshop With Kathy Jentz

Sunday, August 14 from 1:00-3:00pm

at On the Purple Couch in Kensington, MD

You don’t need to cultivate an entire backyard plot to grow enough herbs to use in meals; a simple container on a deck or patio can provide herbs all season, as you need them. This class provides you with the information you need to grow herbs in a container garden or in a small garden bed.

You’ll discover which herbs are best started from seeds and which are best bought as seedlings. You’ll also get tips on different sources for herbs and how to care for them.

Attendees will sample, smell, and taste a variety of herbs.
We will paint a pot with Annie Sloan’s Chalk paint and pot some herbs up in it.
