Discover the hidden beauty and creative potential of shade gardening at Marin Art and Garden Center.

Kick off our new How Does Your Garden Grow? hands-on lecture series with expert gardener Jill Sowards of Violetear Studios. In this engaging and interactive workshop, Jill will demystify the unique characteristics of gardening in shaded spaces, and reveal how these often-overlooked areas can become the most enchanting parts of your landscape.

Learn how to:
* Identify different types of shade and what they mean for plant selection
* Choose shade-loving plants that thrive, not just survive
* Layer texture, foliage, and subtle color for year-round interest

Perfect for home gardeners of all levels, this inspiring session will leave you seeing shade not as a challenge, but as an opportunity.

Reserve your seat and grow your garden knowledge from the ground up.
