Event Description

Decorative gourds and pumpkins are not overly difficult to grow, and the wild array of shapes and sizes can really make fall decorating fun. Children are drawn to them like magnets. They are large vining plants that require space or trellising (I am picturing a gourd teepee for kids). We will discuss the various types of gourds, pumpkins, and squashes and how to grow them. We have a fun assortment of seeds you can grow at home. Cost: $10.00
