All supplies will be provided! Please dress comfortably for the weather and our work together.

Join us on April 2 for a Seed Celebration in the Park!
OSH Director of Gardens Sam Lewis & Garden Coordinator Angela Lombardo will facilitate a neighborhood seed swap. Diversify your home garden by bringing seeds or cuttings from your favorite plants to trade for something new to you. Nothing to swap this time? Leave a donation to support the gardens in exchange for what you take.
After the Swap, join Park Slope Parents for a Plant Lovers’ Meetup on the Little Lawn, and talk plants and gardens with other green thumbs. Non-members are welcome. If you want to join the Plant Lovers’ Meet-Up, please RSVP bit.ly/PSPPlantLovers_Apr2 so we know how many people to expect.
After the Meet Up, join artist Dario Mohr for the unveiling of his new installation “Ancestral Perennial” + a Happy Planting Day workshop honoring ancestors.
Schedule:
9 am – 12 pm Seed & Cutting Swap with OSH Gardeners
10 am – 12 pm Plant Lovers Meet Up with Park Slope Parents
1 pm – 1:30 pm Planting Ceremony with artist Dario Mohr
