Join Flying Dirt Farm for this workshop ideal for beginners looking for more confidence or for experienced gardeners aiming to boost their dahlia-growing skills. During this workshop, you’ll learn:

• Basics of Tubers: how to select, divide, and store tubers to ensure healthy, vigorous plants

• Planting & Care: discover the best soil, sunlight, and fertilization practices, plus essential techniques like pinching and staking for maximum sturdy blooms.

• Seasonal Success: understand how to manage pest control and disease, ensuring your garden thrives from spring through fall

• Harvesting: get tips on cutting blooms for the house to ensure long vase life

Plus, choose two dahlia tubers to pot up and take home for your garden!

Additionally, the experts at Flying Dirt Farm will also talk about why locally grown flowers matter—for the environment, for our community, and for the art of floral design. Plus no shipping boxes or chemicals: just fresh, beautiful blooms cut right from their local fields.
