Registration Is Open! Sign Up for Seed-Starting Workshop This Sunday 3/7/21

New this year: An outdoor event, “to go” supply kits

Join us to plant tomatoes, peppers, eggplant and various flower seeds this Sunday* in the children’s outdoor play area. You’ll leave the workshop with what you need to nurture the “seedlings-to-be” for 6-8 weeks, and then transplant successful seedlings into the garden in late May/early June.

Please note: we are not direct sowing seeds into raised beds yet. We’ll be outside to prepare the planters, but we’ll raise the seedlings INSIDE.

We’ve got of details to share! Thanks in advance for reviewing this notice carefully…we’ve employed several new procedures to help keep everyone safe and socially distanced. To take part, please follow this 3-step process.

1. Make a membership decision. CVEarthlab is self-funded. Because the pandemic has prevented our usual fundraising events (but not our annual expenses), we are raising the suggested annual donation to $30.00 for family memberships. Suggested donations for individual members is $10. No green thumb required.

Not ready to commit to membership, but want to seed-start? The suggested donation is $10. per person. (Each participant will be provided with materials for two plantings, including organic soil and seeds.)

2. Pick a time slot. We’re using this online sign up form for scheduling. Participants must sign up for a 15-minute slot between 1:30 and 3pm. Thanks in advance for scheduling yourself.

3. Donate. If you are able, kindly make a donation electronically (via Venmo @misssha) or send a note to CVEarthlab@gmail.com to arrange payment or finalize your reservation before 2pm Saturday. **

Can’t commit to a specific time and place?  We will provide a “to go” supply kit for those who donate or register as a 2021 member by 2pm on Saturday.

Questions? Send a message to cvearthlab@gmail.com. Thank you!

 *Rain date is Sunday March 14th at the same time

**Alternatively, you can leave a donation with the 175 Adams St doorperson (to Denise Maher’s attention) or send an email message to arrange a hand-off.
