Creative Cold Frames and Cloches

As things start to cool off, join TG as we explore ways in which to extend your growing season even more! Learn about the benefits of using a cold frame in your garden, growing a winter greens crop, and starting your seeds early next spring!  Go home with a small cold frame that you will learn how to build yourself! We will also be covering (no pun intended) the use of cloches and various other types of simple cold frames. PLEASE EMAIL learn@tricyclegardens.org to register.
