The Kruckeberg Botanic Garden is set to host a Hypertufa Planter Workshop on Saturday, May 3, 2025, perfect for anyone looking to enhance their gardening skills. This engaging workshop allows participants to create their very own lightweight planters that resemble real stone. Under the guidance of Sarah Baker, a former Garden Manager and long-time volunteer, attendees will gain hands-on experience and valuable crafting techniques. Each participant will leave with a unique planter approximately 12"x12" in size, along with detailed instructions to replicate the process at home. The workshop consists of two sessions, ensuring ample opportunity for attendees to engage.

With a cost of $50 for members and $70 for non-members, pre-registration is required due to limited availability.
