A simple way to grow native plants. A simple way to help our waters.
Winter sowing is one of the simplest ways to grow native plants in Wisconsin. It uses the natural freeze and thaw cycle to help seeds germinate, and it creates deeper roots that soak up rain and protect local rivers and lakes.
This winter, we’re hosting two hands-on workshops to help you get started. You will build your own winter sow containers, learn what makes native plants so effective for water quality, and head home with seeds ready for spring.
What You’ll Do
You will build your winter sow containers, fill them with soil, plant native seeds, and learn how to set everything up at home for the winter. We bring the containers, soil, seeds, labels, and simple instructions. You leave with a ready to grow kit you can place outside right away.
