Plant native, grow happy: Container gardening workshop

Posted

Support biodiversity even in small spaces with a native plant container garden! Join us Saturday, May 16 at 12 pm at Patriot’s Park (112 Court St., Newtown Borough) for a practical demonstration by our expert Master Gardener. Learn how to choose native plants, soil, and containers, and care for them easily.

Container gardening is ideal for patios, balconies, or adding wildlife-friendly features to your landscape. It helps support pollinators and birds while making a positive local impact.

Attendees will receive info about Pennsylvania native plants and where to buy them, plus take home starter plants. Space is limited to 25; Registration details will be posted on the Newtown Borough website at www.boroughofnewtown.com.  The fee is $20.
