Nurture with Nature: the herb edition

Plant your own herb seeds to take home. No garden? No problem! Herbs are generally very container-friendly and will do just fine growing in small containers — provided by the event organizers from the Campus Community Garden.

No gardening experience necessary. Come on out from noon to 1:30 p.m. Thursday, May 8, in the Student Courtyard outside the east entrance to the CAW Student Centre.
