Girl Scouts Heart of the South and the Down town Tupelo Main Street Association are working to get kids involved in Gardening! The Tupelo Children’s Market invites children to grow their own vegetables or flowers and sell them at the Farmer’s Market. Workshops will be given to help teach kids to have fun in the dirt! These include: soil preparation, basic gardening skills, ridding your garden of pesky insects, and marketing your produce. Other workshops are in development to give the program a fun Girl Scout twist.
Three community gardens to choose from and Space at the Tupelo Girl Scout Office for container planting
Children’s Market will start in May and be every Thursday evening 5:00-8:00
Children’s Market workshops are free! If you plan to sell produce or flowers then a booth is $7.
