Session 1: Garden Foundations — Plan It Before You Plant It

Before you buy plants. Before you dig a single hole. Before you get overwhelmed.

Garden Foundations is designed to help you build a plan that actually fits your space, schedule, and goals.

In this hands-on workshop, we’ll break down the essentials of smart garden planning, including sunlight assessment, space mapping, crop selection, timing for our Wisconsin growing season, and how to design a layout that supports healthy, productive plants.

You’ll leave with practical tools you can use immediately — not just inspiration.

Take-Home:
Printed garden planning guides + a curated selection of seed packets to start at home.

Led by Brittney Hutcherson, Founder of The Melanin Urban Gardener.

Perfect for beginners, small-space growers, and anyone who wants to grow with intention this season.

Spots are limited, please RSVP here to sign up.
