Create your own cool-season container with a variety of plants suitable for a full-sun or partial-shade location. Your container may include annuals, perennials, herbs, decorative foliage, cool-season vegetables, ornamental grasses, and gourds. Your design will be made in a 14-inch, sturdy, biodegradable container you can display as is or place in a decorative pot or urn. Dress for the weather; class will move indoors if needed. Bring gloves if desired.
