In collaboration with Sweet Peas Urban Gardens…
Join us at an incredible urban farm that is making a big difference! This weekend you’ll be learning how to grow your own delicious, nutritious microgreens.
Join Tami Purdue of Sweat Peas Urban Gardens, a true pioneer of the microgreen-growing industry in the Triangle, for a hands-on workshop all about microgreens. This fascinating food is easy to grow, tasty on salads and soups, and packed full of antioxidants and other nutrients. Tami started Sweet Peas Urban Gardens in 2014 in her own backyard…fast forward 8 years and now herself and her team use a retrofitted shipping container with a hydroponic growing system where they grow over fifty-five varieties of microgreens and vegetable shoots along with a ton of other sustainable agricultural projects. Tour their grow-container, their awesome urban farm, and learn all about how you can get started yourself!
*You will leave filled with knowledge and your very own tray of microgreens to take home.
