The Twin Cities will host the
American Community Gardening Association's
26th Annual Conference!

August 12 - 14

Friday August 12, 4 pm - 5:15 (C3 for registration - workshop only $10 for local attendees - you may register on site!)

Kari, along with Ms Kari's Summer Greenthumbs, will present Plants as Medicinals at Mondale Hall, U of M Law School (near the Art Department)

"It is important that we grow relationships to the plants we see every day. When we learn their names, where they originate from, and what useful purpose they serve, we can change our idea of what it means to be a "weed." These lessons are useful in community building of all kinds!"

Saturday August 13, (TC11 for registration)
Kari will help host the Community Gardens Tours at the LRT
Minnehaha Avenue location. A highlight of the tour - our newly expanded Medicinal Gardens! 2 - 2:30 pm Saturday! Our medicine garden journals and products made by the Greenthumbs will be on display!
