*Garden Labs have ended for the 2023 season. Check back in next spring for our new workshop schedule!

Our Garden Labs offer an opportunity for us to strengthen families by sharing information about sustainable gardening and lifestyle practices. Our Labs are FREE of charge and are for ALL ages. With the help of local professionals, Garden Labs are hosted right at our Staunton Garden and include a variety of fun, hands-on workshops! All participants can expect to take home something from the lab to apply to their home gardens/lifestyles! ​Our second season of Labs will begin May 2023.

2022 GARDEN LABS

SOWING SEEDS: STAUNTON CITY & AUGUSTA COUNTY SCHOOLS

Educating our youth is essential to executing our mission. During our off-season, we focus on community outreach through the local school systems in the form of educational sessions that engage students and inform them of our organization's goals. See photos below from our seed-starting sessions and food demonstrations.
