Come join the Charles County Master Gardeners Grow It Eat It Project for a free workshop on  starting your own vegetable seeds, either indoors, with lights, or outside, via “winter sowing.”  No special equipment is needed. The workshop features hands-on demonstrations, using everyday low- or no-cost materials. Starting your own vegetable seeds saves money and allows for greater selection in what you grow. Master Gardeners will be on hand to answer your questions. Please register to help us plan.

Join the University of Maryland Extension - Queen Anne's County Master Gardeners for our annual seed swap and garden day. You do not need to bring seeds to receive seeds. Please label any seeds you bring so that other swappers know what they are getting. Seeds are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

If you need a reasonable accommodation to participate in this event or activity, please contact us at (410) 758-0166 or email Rachel Rhodes at rjrhodes@umd.edu by Monday, January 29, 2024
