Join us at the Living History Farm for a hands-on workshop inspired by historical research and a period-accurate garden. In this immersive experience, attendees will create seed boxes, designed to resemble those used between the 1860s and 1920s. As you decorate a box and watercolor section dividers, you will receive heirloom seed varieties to take home.
Throughout the process, learn about heirloom plants, traditional gardening practices, and the farming techniques that shaped the agricultural landscape of Montana. To enhance the experience, we will provide complimentary tea and coffee, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere as you work. This workshop offers a unique opportunity to connect with history while nurturing the roots of the past.
