In our typical Make and Take style, participants will leave this class with a beautiful planter they designed themselves. We have a selection of plants that will look great in the warmer late summer days and beyond the first frost. Among them are rudbeckia, ornamental grasses, hedera ivy, ornamental kale, and culinary herbs that can be harvested for hearty fall stews. You may choose to pair your planter with the traditional look of mums and pumpkins - both of which we will be selling in the Plant Shop.

NOFA-VT members in the Mad River Valley and beyond: a local farm needs your help to stock local food shelves!
At NOFA-VT, we envision a Vermont where farms and agriculturally-rooted communities thrive together—nourishing the earth and one another. Part of realizing that vision means showing up for one another when abundance arrives faster than hands can keep up. It’s in those moments that mutual aid becomes a powerful act of food sovereignty and an exercise in community care.
