Plant Propagation
101

Join Horticulture Section Lead Jayton Howard and explore a variety of plant propagation techniques while touring several garden spaces, including the Central Garden, Conservatory, Greenhouse, and Kroger Community Kitchen Garden. Along the way, participants will learn how plants are grown and propagated for the garden, observe these methods in action, and gain hands-on experience practicing them. Each student will also create and take home their own propagation station filled with cuttings.
