Gardening in the Mountains presents: Winter Sowing

Gardening in the Mountains Presents: Winter Sowing
John Bowen, EMGV
John Bowen is a Buncombe County (NC) Extension Master GardenerSM Volunteer. He has been growing his own seedlings for years and he’s learned some tricks to make that easier. In this three part video presentation he will share techniques for sowing seeds outdoors in containers in mid-winter. This is an edited video of a class he taught for the Black Mountain Sowing Circle and the Buncombe County Black Mountain Library.
Do you try to grow good seedlings indoors with limited success? Are you out of lights and windowsills? Do you have perennial seeds that are hard to germinate? Do you have the winter blahs and just want to plant something?
In this three-part video on Winter Sowing, John Bowen talks about the materials and processes for planting your seeds outdoors in containers in mid-winter. It’s a low-fuss process that can produce good, strong, spring transplants, even from those difficult-to-germinate seeds requiring extended wet chilling. It uses materials you probably have on hand and it’s a great way to start your own spring vegetable and perennial transplants.
How local businesses are adjusting to the COVID-19 crisis: Woolworth Walk Interview
Dec 17 all-day
Online
The Woolworth Walk is truly a unique Asheville experience; a privately and locally owned gallery in the heart of downtown, located in the historic Woolworth building and exclusively representing local artists. If you’re looking for a way to spice up your gifts this holiday season, The Woolworth Walk has both practical and beautiful pieces perfect for anyone on your list. Also get the inside scoop about the new Woolworth Lofts, located right above the gallery and perfect for your next weekend getaway.
While we’ve all had to adjust to the “new normal” (whatever that is), our local business owners and managers have their own stories to tell about how they’ve been affected and what they are doing during these unprecedented times. Dig Local is proud to interview some of the awesome folks who make Asheville, Asheville.

2020 Venture 15 and Venture Asheville Honors + Awards
Dec 17 @ 8:00 pm
Online w/ Asheville Chamber
Venture Asheville grows Asheville’s startup community and connects high-growth entrepreneurs to talent, mentors and investors through unique programming and events. The Venture 15 and Venture Asheville Honors is our annual end-of-year party where we announce and rank the 15 fastest growing startups in the area and award Entrepreneur, Mentor, Investor, Resource of the Year, The Shining Rock Award and the Venture Asheville Vanguard Award. New award this year – Best Startup to Work For.
While last year’s Venture 15 lives on in our memories, we obviously can’t have VIP receptions, dance parties, or a bar tab this year, so we are going virtual, but it will be anything but boring. With Jeff Kaplan as the emcee for the evening you can expect to hear from our sponsors, winners and finalists all wrapped up in one creative program, along with a few surprises. Buy your tickets, make some popcorn, grab your drink of choice and join us from the comfort of your couch for an exciting, fast-paced evening of awards.
Venture 15 Awards recognize the 15 fastest growing Asheville-area startups. This event celebrates the area’s outstanding entrepreneurs, and it serves as an elite setting where they can share their talent and wisdom as well as offer inspiration to other fledgling companies to be part of this exclusive group.
We’re thrilled to announce that the six incredible workshops from our 7th Annual Harvest Conference are now available for purchase!
