Grab a donut and some coffee at the nursery before you hop on the bus to take us to two wholesale greenhouses, just minutes apart in lovely Louden, NH. Once there, we will tour their greenhouse facilities (be prepared to walk!) to learn how they grow the small plants that are shipped to us (and growers around the country) to be finished into the spectacular hanging baskets and all the "iller" plants we use! Then enjoy their spectacular trial and display gardens where you are sure to get a bazillion ideas for future gardens. Cameras are MUST! Includes a boxed lunch to enjoy a picnic in the gardens, and plants to create one more summer container garden here at the nursery when we return.  
  $49 when you sign up for any three workshops ($75 trip only) Click here for more.
