Slow Food Urban Gardening Class and Dinner: Everything Comes From Dirt

Feed your brain with an an hour and a half gardening class taught by Sandra McLean, co-chair of Slow Food NYC and Brooklyn Botanic Gardens instructor, which is tailored especially for urban dwellers.

The class focuses on growing edibles in small spaces – stoops, roofs, windowsills and fire escapes (shh!). Participants will learn all the basics: choosing the correct containers, selecting the best plants, making the perfect soil mix, starting seedlings, transplanting, fertilizing, simple irrigation systems, and home composting. Each student will leave this hands-on workshop with the know-how and inspiration to start their own garden.

At 6:30 p.m., feed your body with a three-course market dinner with wine pairing in iCi's private dining room.
