Have you wanted to learn how to grow vegetables and herbs but don’t know where to start? Are you limited on space, and think you don’t have room for a garden? Well….. we have a solution! One of the best and easiest ways to grow vegetables and herbs in a small space is in a large container, and we have the perfect 1/2 barrel  that will fit on your patio! Call to register for the Vegetable Garden in a Whiskey Barrel class on April 22nd for a fun time in the greenhouse, bring a friend, bring your kids, and have a great time learning all about growing edibles in small spaces. We have the perfect, super productive plants for a compact garden. You can choose from many different tomatoes, peppers, herbs, and even a flower or two to make it look even more beautiful.

Dr. Patti has many years of experience growing vegetables in small spaces, and will answer all of your gardening questions, leading you through this project step-by-step. We will discuss long term care and harvesting, and go through all of the different types of plants you can grow in your whiskey barrel. This barrel will stay in our greenhouses until the weather is perfect for it to be outside at your home, then we will deliver it to you.
These barrels are long-lasting, and you will be able to replant each year with the veggies and flowers of your choice. Cost for this project is $175,  which includes all materials and delivery.

Fun Family event!

Class will include authentic American Whiskey barrel, soil, vegetables and flowers, fertilizer, fabulous and fun instruction from Dr. Patti, and delivery!
