At the CGC, we love taking our programs outside during the growing season. Nature makes a wonderful classroom! Throughout the summer, we hold free HUB Garden classes in thriving community gardens in and around Cincinnati. We invite you to join us in celebrating these unique spaces as we learn together! You’re welcome to attend even if you’re not a community gardener.
Plants make great food, but they’re not just for eating! We humans have plants to thank for everything from building materials to containers, art supplies, and—of course—medicine. Join us as we explore and (re)discover unique uses of garden plants.
This class will be held at the Melrose Medicinal Garden: 2647 Melrose Ave, 45206.
COST: Free! (Donations welcome)
Join us in the garden for a Healthy Harvest experience! We'll start with a tour of the garden with time to explore and learn, then enjoy a cooking demonstration (with samples, of course!) using freshly picked produce. We’ll cover topics like seasonality, unique and rare crops, and new ways to use old standbys.
This class will be held at the West End Community Garden: 941 Poplar St, 45214.
