GrowTogether with us for Earth Week at Part 2 of the 38th Annual GreenThumb GrowTogether Conference and learn how to make a screen to print designs to produce swag for your community garden! Materials will be provided. Participants will be able to screen print t-shirts to bring home, while supplies last.
