Over the course of five weeks, you will produce a large Planter Box while learning about the tools and techniques it takes to build one. During each three-hour session, there will be discussions on design, patterns, tools, and finishing. You will leave with a Planter Box ready to plant and entice the pollinators to your garden. Plus, the knowledge gained from this course will enable you to make more Planter Boxes on your own schedule using affordable materials and tools!

In this workshop, you will create a 3'x2'x18" planter box made of Southern Yellow Pine.

Call the Museum on weekdays from 9 to 5 with any questions or scholarship inquiries.
