Join us for a family-friendly exploration of the herbs and vegetables growing at the South Pine Street City Garden, led by local herbalist and council member AnnMarie Tedeschi. We will smell, taste and learn about various herbs and vegetables in the garden and together, we will use them to make herbal preparations, such as sun teas and a garden fire cider to add to the South Pine Street City Farm stand. Children are invited to stay to help run the farm stand! This immersive workshop is donation-based and is designed for all-ages. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
