***note: rescheduled to Thurs, 6/5 5 - 6:30, due to predicted rain on Saturday 5/31***

Want to learn how to plant a native garden from scratch and get your hands dirty while you're at it? Wild Seed Project and the Burbank Branch of the Portland Public Library are teaming up to offer a hands-on planting workshop. You'll learn how to convert a lawn into garden beds using the tried-and-true sheet mulching method, apply some simple "cues to care" design principles, and practice planting a variety of native perennials. In the process, you'll help create a pollinator-friendly, Community Seed Garden at Burbank Branch and leave with the confidence and tools to embark on your own native planting.

Notes on access: Please note that this event will take place outdoors. We encourage you to bring sunscreen, water, and weather-appropriate clothing. Rain or snow dates will be determined and communicated by staff if needed.
