Garden Planning & Seed Starting with Don Ludke

February 12, 2023 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm

One of the most challenging tasks for gardeners is seed starting. Whether you are an experienced gardener or just getting started, this class will teach you everything you need to know to start, grow, and transplant healthy organic seedlings into your veggie garden. You’ll also recieve a seedling to take home!

Meet your Teacher

Don Ludke has been a certified Master Gardener for over 13 years, a public-school teacher in Maryland for 40 years, and a home gardener for 50 years. He has taught adult gardening classes on a variety of practical gardening and landscape topics throughout the state. His gardening areas of interest and knowledge include companion planting, crop timing and garden design. He appreciates sharing his experience and knowledge with all who will listen and who are interested in learning about the benefits of gardening.

In 2023, Fox Haven will continue to pay $2 from every ticket sale to the Piscataway Land Trust as a LandBack tax for the land Fox Haven inhabits. Land taxes to indigenous nations function similarly to paying rent or a home mortgage. Payments such as a mortgage provide access to living space, whereas LandBack taxes recognize our access to stolen Indigenous land.

Venue

Fox Haven Organic Farm & Learning Center
3630 Poffenberger Rd.
Jefferson, MD 21755 United States

About LandBack Tax
From 2022 onward, Fox Haven will donate $2 from each event ticket to the Kikeokan Foundation to pay LandBack tax, acknowledging our access to stolen Indigenous land. The Kikeokan Foundation is an Indigenous-led initiative working to restore ancestral land and sovereignty to the Piscataway and other Indigenous communities of the Chesapeake.
