Light refreshments and cookies will be available.

About the speaker:  Justice Marshall apprenticed with Dan Jason (Salt Spring Seeds) for the 1999 season.  He previously gardened at Hollyhock Retreat Centre and went on to start Linnaea Farm Seeds in 2000.  Justice continues to marvel at the natural world and loves to see people enjoying plants, gardening and seedsaving.

This workshop has been supported by a Neighbourhood Small Grant from the Vancouver Foundation
