Native Plant Winter Seed Starting Workshop

  • Roy Latham Nature Center 65275 County Rte. 48 Greenport, NY, 11944 United States (map)

Registration is required, please register here.

Growing native plants from seed is an extremely rewarding experience, both personally as well as being beneficial for our environment. Participants in this hands-on event will sow native seeds in trays that will hold 15 - 4" pots.  Attendees will take all 15 pots home to use in their garden either to start a native pollinator garden or add to one that is already begun.  Beginners are welcome and all materials will be provided  including a variety of Long Island native plant seeds such as asters, cardinal flower, butterfly weed, and others. Participants are also welcome to bring their own seeds.  Space is limited, so please sign up only if you have not been able to attend this workshop at a local library.
