SUMMARY:Grow & Gather: Family Gardening Program
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to plant seedlings, directly sow, weed, prune, companion plant, harvest vegetables, dry herbs, and more with Queens County Farm Museum’s in-house Botanist and biology expert, Tess Fleming. Our Compost and STEM Coordinators will also be onsite for several of these fully outdoor, hands-on gardening sessions. Sessions take place in one or more of our six Teaching Gardens where we plant and harvest tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, a wide variety of lettuces, kale, broccoli, zucchini, summer squash, sunflowers, strawberries, onions, potatoes, turnips, parsnips, green beans, snap peas, cucamelons, radishes, carrots, watermelon, and a large assortment of herbs and spices.
Each session is 1 hour long and focuses on a particular topic related to gardening:
Visiting the teaching gardens and discovering the plants grown in each area
Tasting plant-based dishes based around seasonal produce
A hands-on gardening activity related to plant or animal care on the farm
Preparing a dish for you to take home to cook or bake along with recipes
What could be better? Learn new skills, get your hands dirty, take a walk outdoors, and eat the freshest produce available!
