# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Starting Seeds Indoors: Beat Edmonton's Short Growing Season
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 05 Mar, 2026 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Learn to start seeds indoors and extend your growing season. This workshop teaches you how to grow healthy transplants for tomatoes, peppers, and other warm-season crops that need more time than Edmonton's Zone 3 climate allows.

➜ What You'll Learn:

✔️ Which crops to start indoors vs. direct sow in the garden
✔️ When to start seeds based on Edmonton's last frost date
✔️ Equipment and materials needed (pots, soil, lighting)
✔️ How to prevent leggy seedlings, damping off, and weak transplants
✔️ Proper hardening off and transplanting techniques

Perfect for: Edmonton gardeners, beginner seed starters, home vegetable growers, and anyone wanting to extend their growing season.

When: March 5th
Where: Queen Alexander Community League
Cost: $20

Timing matters. Start too early and seedlings outgrow their pots. Start too late and you lose the advantage. 

This workshop shows you how to plan your indoor seed starting around Edmonton's climate and last frost date.

➜ Instructor: Mattéa Bujold co-owns One Garden YEG and is a Master Composter Recycler. She teaches seed starting, composting, and garden planning at libraries, universities, and community associations across Edmonton.
