Event Type

Explore the 27 South Pine Street Community Garden with us, where the Kingston Food Co-op is stewarding beds of veggies, flowers, and herbs. Join our crafting workshop using plants from the garden and natural materials to create works of art. We’ll create natural dyes, veggie stamps, and press flowers. Bring along any clothing you want to dye; white cotton works best to absorb the colors. Participation is free—come join the fun!
