With Sage Comes Wisdom – by Opening Worlds to Literacy

Our workshop, “With Sage Comes Wisdom”, aimed to introduce people to the joys of gardening. We wanted to bring the satisfaction of taking care of plants to the community. To do this, we decided to have planting kits for sage, mint, and basil because they are relatively easy to grow with a variety of uses. Over the course of several months, we researched, put together instructions, and made decorated kits ready with seeds, dirt, pots, and labelling accessories. Group members learned about the planting process while researching and learned the effectiveness of marketing through various media types. Assembling the kits was very memorable because counting the frustratingly tiny seeds to be packaged and decorating paper bags was exciting for everyone. In conclusion, we are proud of the resulting effects on the community, because many workshop participants expressed joy over their newly potted plants
