growing gardeners workshops
The Growing Gardeners Workshop Series is a collaboration between City Sprouts and The Big Garden. We work together to offer four seasons of hands-on workshops that feature skills and techniques for every gardener and urban farmer: growing, cooking, preserving and eating healthy local food. All workshops are free and open to all ages.
Our workshops are broken up into three main tracks: Urban Ag School, Herbal Medicine Cabinet, and Culinary Workshops. We also have smaller workshops attached to various community events that we have throughout the year. Check out all of our workshop offerings on our Growing Gardeners website.
We love having guest teachers from our community lead workshops! Are you knowledgable about a subject that you'd like to share in a workshop? Reach out to our Education Manager and explain what skills you'd like to share.

About the Event
City Sprouts wants to hear from urban and small-scale growers of all experience levels regarding the availability and accessibility of information and resources. This listening session is designed for urban farmers to share their experience with starting and running their operation, accessing resources and information, and implementing conservation agriculture and soil health principles. We encourage individuals of all experience levels, whether you're just getting your garden growing or are an established urban farm, to come and share their perspective so we can consider all sides.
This event will be hosted at UNO's Barbara Weitz Community Engagement Center in Room 231. Parking is available in LOT E. Food and refreshments will be provided at not cost.
