Healthy Gardens
Firehouse Cultural Center, 101 1st Ave NE, Ruskin FL

Learn about sustainability and conservation; try new, fresh foods and recipes. We will also grow plants for eating, cooking, creating, and sharing in the new FCC garden. We’ll experiment with a wide variety of veggies, herbs and flowers growing in everything from straw bales to tires to homemade garden beds. Digging in the dirt and caring for plants is a wonderful way to have fun, learn and connect to each other and our shared natural world.
