Join us on Saturday, June 3rd as we will be giving out free seedlings! The PGSCD lineup will consist of black cherry tomatoes and sweet basil—started from seeds by the Ujamaa Cooperative Farming Alliance, and grown courtesy of Maryland-National Capital Park & Planning Commission. Supplies are limited, so pick up your seedling as early as possible! The event is held at Darnall’s Chance House Museum at 14800 Governor Oden Bowie Dr, Upper Marlboro, MD 20772. If you miss out on the seedlings, your green thumb will still be satisfied, as our vendors will have seedlings for sale, and our All-Native Northeast Wildflower Seed Mix will be available as well!

** This will be a sunshine-only event! In the case of inclement weather, please check back with this page to receive the latest updates regarding rescheduling. This Saturday, June 3rd, will be mostly sunny with a high of 85°F, and a low of 57°F. **
