Productive Plant Propagation Workshop

Learn to propagate productive plants for your garden, and take them home. 

Propagate using a variety of methods:

• Hardwood cuttings

• Semi-hardwood cuttings

• Root cuttings

• Stolons

• Layering

• Seeds - scarification and stratification

Workshop participants get their hands dirty and propagate a number of productive plants such as:

• Comfrey

• Rhubarb

• Fig

• Elderberry

• Chilean guava

• Pineapple sage

• Mints/herbs

• Groundcovers/alpine strawberries

• Lemon verbena

A mix of theory and practical propagation.

Participants will then be able to propagate their own material at home, as well as go home with 20+ propagated plants during the workshop worth $100+.
