Garden Gateway Workshops combine hands-on gardening education with nutrition and cooking activities that help participants build practical skills they can use at home.

During this session, we'll cover the basics of pruning, including how to recognize which branches need attention and how pruning practices vary depending on the plant. We will cover the practice of seed saving during our workshop. Nutrition/Cooking: Roasted Squash Salad Learn how to prepare a flavorful roasted squash salad using seasonal vegetables and fresh greens. We'll demonstrate how to roast squash to bring out its natural sweetness and combine it with other fresh ingredients to create a balanced, satisfying dish.
