A Garden Adventure in Growing Herbs

Join us for another “… & Sip” event in our outdoor classroom with this unique learning and tasting experience learning to grow HERBS!  

This creative interactive workshop is a guided exploration of starting your own mini herb garden to take home while you sip a selection of lovely organic wine and savor delicious cheeses.  You’ll leave this event with your very own pot of herbs of your choosing that you plant yourself to grow at home.
