Fresh food is the best food, so why not try your hand at growing some of your own?

We’ll learn about container gardening and community gardens in Battle Creek, which veggies to grow when, and how to start seedlings and transplant them. Each family will choose which veggies to grow and plant seeds into starter trays to take home!
