March Sustainability Gathering: DIY Grow Bags

Maintaining a garden can be costly, but DIY grow bags are inexpensive and so easy to sew! They can be made in any size for your plants. Participants will learn basic sewing machine skills and can take home the grow bags they make. All materials provided. We'll be sewing these grow bags out of felt, but we'll go over other materials you can use if you want to try it at home. This workshop will be led by community members, Rachel and Dan.

Sustainability Gatherings take place on the last Saturday of every month and include a garden brigade in a different host's garden (because many hands make light work) and a free workshop led by a community member to grow our collective knowledge about plants, sustainability, food sovereignty, the land, and more. This monthly event is co-hosted by Blue Trunk Community Network and Central Florida Mutual Aid.

Blue Trunk Community Gardens goal is to maintain a sustainable operation by practicing ecological sustainability and providing members of the community with knowledge of the importance of agriculture, community and trade.

Central Florida Mutual Aid is a collective of regular folx in Orange, Osceola, and Seminole counties practicing mutual aid. We center the voices and needs of those most impacted by systems of oppression. For CFLMA, mutual aid has three crucial elements: collaborating to meet each other's needs, having a shared understanding that the systems we live within are oppressive and not meeting our needs, and working together to strategically address root causes and bring about radical change. https://www.instagram.com/cflmutualaid/
