Growing at Home: The Art and Sustainability of Microgreens and Mushrooms

We’re excited to invite the community to “Growing at Home: The Art and Sustainability of Microgreens and Mushrooms” — a free, 3-part hands-on workshop series happening this summer as part of the Art of Food Exhibit. There are only 100 spaces available. Please RSVP ASAP to secure your spot!!! The link is located in our BIO.

🗓 Kicking off Saturday, July 26, 2025 | 1:30–3:30 PM
📍 Yonkers Arts – 216 Lake Ave, Yonkers, NY

In this first session, we’ll focus on microgreens — small in size but packed with nutrients, flavor, and potential. They’re easy to grow at home, budget-friendly, and one of the most practical ways to bring wellness into your everyday meals.

This workshop is FREE and open to all ages — whether you’re growing in a backyard or on a windowsill, this space is for you.
