In partnership with WSU Snohomish County Extension Master Gardeners, the Growing Groceries Education Series brings together beginning and experienced gardeners with speakers and topics focused on growing healthy food using sustainable gardening practices.

All classes take place on Wednesday evenings, 7:00-9:00pm; Oct 12, 2022 thru Mar 29, 2023; $5 per class or $50 for the entire series of 15 classes.

Have to miss one? No problem! A link to a video recording will be sent to everyone registered the day after each class along with links to resources and more! Everyone registered for the series will receive links to ALL class recordings, regardless of when you register.

No matter if you only have a tiny apartment deck, small garden space, or plenty of acreage you can grow fresh food in a healthier, more environmentally friendly way.

Developed over the last decade, the program's goal is to increase our communities' access to healthy food by teaching the latest research-based techniques for growing.
