(Atlantic, Iowa) – The Cass County Grow Another Row Committee is hosting a free event at Mollett Park on August 6, 2024, at 6:30 pm. “Pots and Popsicles” is a free class to learn about patio gardens. Participants can plant lettuce, spinach, herbs, radishes, and/or peas to keep on their patios. This free educational gardening event will help participants learn how to plant, care for, and harvest late-season plants to enjoy this fall. Popsicles and refreshments will be provided.

Participants are welcome to bring their own pots; otherwise, pots can be provided. The Grow Another Row Committee and Thrivent Funding will provide seeds and soil. Attendees can also plant an extra pot to donate to the local food pantry.

Mollett Park is located at 1020 East 3rd Street Place, in Atlantic (off of N. Mulberry Street).

If you are interested in attending, registration is strongly encouraged by August 2, 2024. This will ensure that we have enough supplies. Please register by contacting Grace McAfee at mcage@casshealth.org or by phone at 712-250-8170.
