WLT is hosting expert microgreen grower, Kain Bonneau for two very exciting hands-on workshops, one for adults and one for ages 6 and up! 🥗
🌱Microgreens 101: Wednesday, April 9, 5:30 pm
Join us at Barlow Nature Preserve where Kain will guide you through the process of selecting seeds, preparing your growing space, and nurturing your plants from seed to harvest, while highlighting nutritional value and culinary applications. At the end of the session, you’ll take home your very own micro greens grow kit, so you can get started immediately! Come prepared to get dirty as we will be sowing and sampling many varieties of microgreens! This workshop is geared towards adults. WLT members are $25 and $35 for nonmember, which Kain has generously pledged to donate a portion of proceeds to WLT. Registration is required, spots are limited. Sign up through our Calendar of Events at the link in our bio.
🌱Seedling School: Monday, April 14, 10 am during April Break!
In this exciting and interactive class, students will discover the wonders of microgreens – tiny, nutritious plants that are as fun to grow as they are to eat! This program teaches not only how to grow plants but also how to be mindful of the environment and the importance of healthy, home-grown food. By the end of the session students will know how to grow their own microgreens and leave with a DIY microgreen grow kit to start growing at home. This program is for students ages 6 and up. Student drop off and pick up is required! This program is NO COST thanks to generous community support! Registration is required, spots are limited.

Many thanks to the @thewatchhillconservancy for hosting the WLT team for a windy walk at Napatree Point Conservation Area yesterday. 🌊
🐧Did you know that Napatree has been designated a “Globally Important Bird Area” by the National Audubon Society and a “Climate Response Demonstration Site” by the University of Rhode Island Coastal Institute?
There is so much good environmental research and conservation work going on right here in Westerly, and we are proud to call the Watch Hill Conservancy friends and allies in these endeavors. 🌾
