Brrr! The weather is getting chilly. It's the perfect time to stay indoors while learning how to save time and money on your gardening projects for 2023!

Gardening on a Dime

Prices for everything are going up, including plants, seeds, and supplies. Take this class to learn some creative ways to garden reusing items you may already have, learn how to save your own seeds, and how to propagate (make more of) plants. In a hands-on exercise, you will learn how to harvest, save, and label pepper seeds, and then take them home to plant next spring!  

Due to holidays conflicting with class dates, this class won't be offered at Riverbank or Turlock Library locations.

Contact your local library branch to find out more. Missed a class you wanted to take? Look for it at another library branch in the future.
