Come out to the farm and exchange some of your time & energy for some farm grown herbs & flowers!

After leaving the farm to the birds & the bees to spend some quality family time with my little one this summer, it’s time to return to the farm, tend to the land & prepare for next season.

I would love your help and as the saying goes, many hands makes light work!

Tasks include: prepping beds, planting perennials, harvesting seeds, weeding, mulching & pruning

In exchange for: your choice of fresh culinary herbs, fresh medicinal roots, a potted perennial, cut flowers, seeds

I am able to provide gloves and have a few hand tools to share but if you have your own gloves, snips, spade, hori hori, or favourite garden tools please bring them along. 

Join other passionate gardeners in your community and learn how to take cuttings of established perennial plants to produce new plants. This will be an outdoor and hands-on workshop hosted by Ali, Emily, and baby Weston.

It will be a short evening of fun, learning, and community conversation! Attendees will get to cut and pot up their own plants. And everyone will take home a pot with 6 or more different culinary and medicinal herb cuttings of their own!

Fireweed will provide all of the supplies and tools needed but you are welcome to bring your own clippers as we only have so many and often need to share amongst participants.
