Growing Community: Getting Ready for Spring

View Event Details

ACM Beyond The Exhibition presents a Growing Community Series together with Martha's Table

​​​​​​​Join ACM’s Growing Community at Martha’s Table Healthy Happy Hour, a free weekly community gathering that brings neighbors together for connection and wellness. Stop by the Commons to enjoy refreshing healthy mocktails, nutritious snacks, music, gardening activities, and hands-on wellness activities for all ages.  

Participants will prepare for the upcoming growing season by learning how to start a windowsill garden and properly plant seeds indoors. The session will focus on seed selection, soil preparation, and early-stage plant care, equipping participants with the knowledge and tools needed to transition confidently into spring planting.
