SANTA MONICA The Santa Monica Community Garden with co-sponsorship from the Santa Monica Office of Sustainability and the Environment will offer a free virtual program teaching kids ages 6-11 how to properly start their own garden. “Plant an Herbalicious Garden” is the name of the event and will occur on Saturday, January 9 at 1 p.m. via Zoom.
The Program Coordinator from the Santa Monica Community Garden and staff will teach kids how to start a herb garden that is most suited for windowsills or patio. If the need of gardening materials, the Community Garden will offer supplies while they last available only through curbside pickup. Parents who do not have gardening materials can have kids make them from common household materials, such as using popsicle sticks for seed markers, as noted by the city of Santa Monica website.
