All About Lavender Outdoor Class at Sterchi Farm

This class is in partnership with Trust for Public Land and The Chattery in celebration of the opening of the South Chickamauga Creek Greenway.

We love lavender! It’s beautiful, smells wonderful, and every garden deserves at least one lavender plant. If you’ve struggled to grow lavender, or a new gardener looking for a few tips to grow lavender successfully then join this class. We'll learn how to grow lavender in our area, what varieties to choose, and how to grow, maintain, and harvest.

Each participant will make a dream pillow filled with fragrant lavender and other herbs.

Class is by donation. All proceeds from event registrations will go towards the South Chattanooga Community Association, a community partner of the Trust For Public Land.
