| Details | Early spring is the best time to get a jump on the plantings season, proper planning ensures a garden that is bountiful the whole season. Through proven techniques and new hacks, our garden team will explore the benefits of early plantings. Growing Community is the longstanding community gardening program at the Smithsonian's Anacostia Community Museum. Through garden programming, residents of all ages can engage with the beauty of the natural world, a healthy food system, and their cultural past. We welcome the community to participate in our monthly workshops, taking place throughout the growing and harvesting seasons. All workshops incorporate themes such as gardens as places of community and connections to our cultural past; gardens as sites of stewardship and nurture; and gardens as sites of empowerment and access to good nutrition and healthy living. |
