Thursday, March 1–The Green Thumbs is a volunteer group that invites gardeners of all ages and skill level to lend a hand in the Accokeek Foundation’s Museum Garden and, on occasion, the National Colonial Farm. Volunteers will have an opportunity to learn more about the history of heirloom vegetables and the practices behind organic gardening, from planting and harvesting produce to better managing weeds and pests. We will work together in the garden space, sharing ideas, knowledge, skills, and stories. We will meet on the first and third Thursdays and third Saturdays of each month throughout the growing season. Water and light snacks will be provided.
