Dukes Farm is working with Chocolay Ace Hardware to host a seed starting workshop for kids on Saturday May 9, at 1pm. Kids (and their grownups) can start their own seeds to take home and care for, eventually planting them in their gardens or larger pots!
RSVP using the short form, below.
- WHEN: Saturday, May 9, 1pm
- WHERE: The greenhouse at Chocolay Ace Hardware, in Marquette. Please carpool, if possible, so we don’t fill up the whole parking lot.
- WHAT: Kids can just show up and learn about starting seeds, and start seeds themselves for their own garden. No need to bring anything with you, except perhaps water (in case the greenhouse is really warm that day).
- WHAT IS PROVIDED: Dukes Farm will provide: pots, potting soil, seeds (beans, cucumbers, lettuce, nasturtiums, peas, pumpkins, sunflowers, watermelon, and zucchini). Ace Hardware has anything gardening-related you would need, as well as a seed rack you can choose from, if you want to grow something other than the seeds we are already providing.
- COST: Suggested donation of $5 per participating person, to cover costs, would be appreciated. You can donate using Venmo, check, or cash when you are at the greenhouse.
- RSVP/check-in by filling out this short form, please: event sign-up form
- QUESTIONS?: Contact me (Gabriel), at …. Email: info@lakesuperiorfarms.com Phone: 906-360-8710
- CHECK-IN: at the front counter, inside of the store, when you arrive.
