Join Alabama Advanced Master Gardener Janell Diggs as he takes you through sowing seeds in a growing medium, caring for your crop, and harvesting tender microgreens at their peak for maximum flavor and nutrition. You’ll also discover simple culinary techniques for incorporating these vibrant, nutrient-rich greens into a variety of dishes, adding a delicious and healthy touch to your everyday cooking. Participants will take home their own microgreens kit!
