Microgreens: what are they, why they are so fabulous and how to grow them.

You've likely seen them, but what makes microgreens so good for you?  Join the Master Gardeners of Northern Virginia to learn their many benefits, and some ways to grow these delicious, nutritious and inexpensive baby plants and sprouts in your own home. We provide supplies for you to plant your own container, so come prepared to get a bit dirty when you make your own microgreen garden in class.  Registration requested.
