Planting the Past: Crafting Historic Seed Boxes

The Living History Farm hosts a hands-on workshop inspired by historical research and a period-accurate garden. In this immersive experience, attendees will create seed boxes, designed to resemble those used between the 1860s and 1920s. While decorating a box and watercolor section dividers, each attendee will receive heirloom seed varieties to take home.
Throughout the process, learn about heirloom plants, traditional gardening practices, and the farming techniques that shaped the agricultural landscape of Montana. To enhance the experience, complimentary tea and coffee will be served, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. This workshop offers a unique opportunity to connect with history while nurturing the roots of the past.
