Nursery Workdays are every Thursday 10 am-12 pm, March 26th-November 19th.
Work and learn alongside our Nursery Manager, Jacob Stidham: propagating, seeding, transplanting, pruning, fertilizing, and a plethora of other exciting 'behind the scenes’ tasks have been brought back to Yew Dell just as they were over half a century ago. This is a great way to get a first look at some of the newest and coolest plants coming into Yew Dell.
