Program Description
Story and song introduce the ancient traditions of Native American gardening. Slides, discussion and a demonstration of gardening plans and techniques show how to plan, plant and tend a historically-accurate Native garden. This workshop shares how to preserve ancient plant varieties to participate in gardening as part of the Circle of Life. We’ll also explore the harvest, recipes and suggestions for garden crafts and games. Throughout, Michael draws from his book: Native American Gardening: Stories, Projects and Recipes for Families. This program has been presented to numerous garden clubs, as a keynote at Master Gardeners’ Conferences and for the National Gardening and Youth Symposium in Chicago.
