Native plants workshop: Sunday, March 8, 2026, 1:00 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. at The Ferry House, Maidsville, West Virginia. Celebrate the coming of spring while learning about native plants. This workshop will help you propagate and grow perennial, biennial, and annual self-sowing native plants from seed. The focus will be on plants native to north-central West Virginia with special emphasis on: 1) winter sowing perennials that require a short chill period; 2) starting seeds indoors that require no chilling; and 3) the creation of “soft landings” beneath trees for overwintering insects. You’ll leave the workshop with tons of information and resources, packets of seeds, a planted jug of a locally native species, and a 6-pack of planted seeds to nurture indoors. Additional packets of seed from Prairie Moon Nursery will be available for separate purchase. Milkweed Rising Studio art (spring greetings cards, mandala stickers, and glass cabochon magets) will also be available for sale.
