From Table to Garden: The Art of Seed Saving with John Rivers

March 28 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm

Join 4Roots Founder, John Rivers, for a hands-on experience that reimagines what’s possible from the food and flowers already around your home!

In this complimentary class featured during our Spring Flower Festival, you’ll learn how the everyday fruits, vegetables, and even fresh or dried flowers from your local farmers market or grocery store can become the starting point for your next harvest.

Through simple, approachable techniques, John will guide you in identifying, recovering, cleaning, drying, and storing seeds from both produce and blooms—along with practical tips for successfully planting and regrowing them at home. This class invites you to slow down, reconnect with the full life cycle of plants, and discover the beauty in giving both ingredients and flowers a second life.

Perfect for beginner gardeners and curious growers alike, you’ll leave with recovered seeds in hand—and the inspiration and confidence to cultivate something meaningful from your kitchen scraps and garden clippings.
