Spring Workshops at Salisbury: What’s Coming Up in April

Spring at Salisbury Greenhouse is all about getting your hands back in the soil and setting yourself up for a season that actually works. April workshops are designed to be practical, approachable, and genuinely useful—no guesswork, no overcomplication. Each session focuses on a specific skill or project, giving you the chance to learn it properly and leave with something you’ll use right away!
