Join us at The H.A.R.P. Museum at the Irish Cultural Center of the Mohawk Valley on Thursday, April 25, 2024, at 7:00 p.m. for a presentation on Irish container gardening.

In a world of limited time and space, container gardens make more and more sense. Containers allow you to enjoy growing plants in places that might be thought to be impossible. Poor soil or no places to put plants in the ground is no longer an excuse for not being able to enjoy the simple pleasure of gardening. Let’s double that pleasure and transport to Ireland as we explore and build a lush garden container much like those seen at homes, pub window boxes, or other scapes of Ireland.

Local arborist and landscaper, Mike Mahanna, will present the basics of container gardening and educate on the flowers of Ireland, many of which are used here as well.

During the presentation, we will enjoy a glass of wine or soft drink as we settle in and listen and observe the creation of a beautiful container garden. The final masterpiece will be raffled off at the end of the session to one lucky participant. Your raffle ticket is included in your admission!

$15 admission includes wine and 1 raffle ticket. Additional raffle tickets will be available for purchase.

You can attend this presentation at the H.A.R.P. Museum located on the second floor of the Irish Cultural Center of the Mohawk Valley, 623 Columbia St, Utica.
