We’re back with another exciting Garden Gateway workshop! This month, we’re focusing on fruit tree pruning and seasonal cooking with pumpkin and sage. Join us to learn essential pruning techniques that promote healthy growth and maximize fruit production. Whether you’re a novice or an experienced gardener, you’ll gain practical insights to enhance the vitality of your trees.

Afterward, enjoy a hands-on cooking session where we’ll prepare a warming pumpkin sage soup! This session invites everyone—whether you’re new to cooking or a seasoned chef—to explore the rich, autumnal flavors of fresh pumpkin paired with aromatic sage. Perfect for bringing seasonal warmth to your home-cooked meals!
