We would love to see you at the farm for one of our scheduled classes or events. We will open up registration approximately 30 days before the class is held.
We’re kicking the year off with a new class on Forcing Bulbs and registration is now open! Here are the specifics.
Growing Bulbs Indoors For Winter Blooms – On Farm Workshop
Friday February 23 - 10 am to noon
If you like to keep flowers in your house, winter can be a challenge. It is too cold for cutting much from the garden. Fortunately, there is a wonderful alternative available by forcing bulbs. The world of bulbs offers a great variety of shapes and colors to delight you at home before spring arrives.
Once you have learned how to make this happen, you can unleash your creativity to create interesting pots of one or many varieties at home. Indoor bulb gardens bloom and trigger our endorphins at their very sight. Who doesn’t need a lift when the nights are still so long and the temperatures are low?
Come and join us for this workshop on how to prepare bulbs for indoor blooms. Forcing is a method of growing plants that makes or forces them to flower at a different time than they would under normal conditions. We will review the timetables for forcing various bulbs, discuss potting mixes, and storage options.
Select from the bulbs we have prepared and pot up your own bulb garden to take home. Selection choices include early Narcissus, Hyacinth and Iris. When the bulbs have bloomed out, plant them in your garden for blooms next year.
Workshop is limited to 7 people.
