Plant a Pot of Tea Workshop
If your image of making tea starts with a white paper mesh bags filled with mysterious dried leaves, this workshop will blow your mind. Green, black, and white teas are all versions of dried and cured leaves of Camellia sinensis, which are a little too thirsty for San Diego gardens. But that’s not the case for herb teas. Our climate is great for growing lemon verbena, mint, cardamom, pineapple sage, lavender, hyssop, and many more herbs you can use to blend your very own teas, dried or fresh. In this hands-on workshop, Nan Sterman demonstrates a host of herbs that are super easy in a pot or in the ground and all of which make great teas. Get ready to get dirty while you plant a pot of tea. Workshops generally run two hours.
Plant it Hot or Plant it Spicy Workshop
Do you like hot or do you like spicy? Either way, it’s easy to grow the herbs you like to use in your favorite recipes. Homegrown herbs taste totally different from the dry herbs sold in the market. In this hands-on workshop, Nan Sterman introduces you to a host of fresh familiar and specialty herbs, from bay to oregano, myrtle to lavender. You’ll plant your own pots too, one hot, one spicy, to take home and grow in your garden. If you love to cook and you like to garden, this workshop is made for you. In fact, once you go fresh, you might never go back. Workshops generally run two hours.
