Discover the joy of growing your own fresh, flavorful, and medicinal herbs in containers this fall! Join us at Ground Goods for an engaging Fall Herb Container Workshop hosted by Emily Gogol of Grow It From Home, a passionate expert in home gardening and sustainable growing practices.

Emily will guide you through planting your container using premium organic soil and expert care instructions tailored to container gardening and fall climate conditions. Learn how to nurture your plants for ongoing harvests, and gain insights into the rich tradition of herbal medicine woven into daily wellness.

In this hands-on workshop, you will plant one of three carefully curated herb containers designed to thrive in Marin County’s mild fall climate, while exploring their flavorful and therapeutic properties:

Fresh & Mild Flavor Trio
Parsley, Chervil, and Lemon Balm—these herbs not only brighten your cooking but also support digestion, reduce anxiety, and promote relaxation. Lemon Balm is renowned for calming the nervous system and easing digestive discomfort, while parsley and chervil bring vitamins and subtle digestive benefits.

Classic Mediterranean Trio
Thyme, Oregano (Greek or Italian), and Rosemary—hardy, drought-tolerant herbs rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties. These herbs boost immunity, improve circulation, and have been used traditionally to support respiratory and digestive health.

Savory & Aromatic Trio
Sage, Marjoram and Dill—aromatic herbs prized for their antiseptic, digestive, and anti-inflammatory effects. Sage is known to aid memory and soothe sore throats, while dill supports digestion and Winter Savory contributes a warming touch.
