Stewarding Sorghum from Seed

This event is hosted in partnership with Deep Routes

Join Maya Marie and the NYRP Urban Ag team to learn about the Afro-Indigenous origins of sorghum, cultivation techniques, and more. Participants will have a chance to get into seeds, learn about transplanting vs. direct seeding, and help sow a crop of sorghum in the Teaching Garden.

This session is part 1 of 3 in The Sweetness of Sorghum, a hands-on Deep Routes workshop series honoring the foodways that connect plants, peoples, and lands across Afro-Indigenous diasporas.

NOTE: Registration is required for this workshop. ATTENDANCE WILL BE CAPPED AT 25 PEOPLE, after which anyone else who registers will automatically be added to a waitlist.
