Container Design Workshop

Bring New Curb Appeal to your Creations!

Learn how to create beautiful, lasting container displays for your front door, porch, or patio in this hands-on workshop led by Alice Ely, UConn Advanced Master Gardener.

Register by May 27th and receive a pre-workshop guide with tips for selecting the right plants for your space, including Alice’s “4 C’s” - color, composition, conditions, and container specifics - along with guidance on soil mixes and container success.

Then, head to Gilbertie’s in Westport, guide in hand, to gather inspiration and shop for your plants. Finally, join us on May 31 for an evening of libations and hands-on learning, where Alice will demonstrate how-to’s while you create your unique container arrangement to bring home.

**Please bring your container, plants, potting soil, and trowel to the workshop.
