Garden Wonderments Series 2025
Hand & Petal’s Garden Wonderments classes are events that bring new and old gardners, their friends, and anyone who loves a happy plant a chance to deepen their understanding of 3-5 the greater region’s indigenous plants; examine the plants up close; explore the role of these plants in the broader ecology; and settle into the ways the plants wake, inspire and soothe our souls. The Wonderments are perfect for any one, any time, for any occassion. but do let us know if you are coming with someone special or if you are celebrating. All Wonderers leave with their own plant(s) and the know-how to care for it.
