Below its wholesome surface, gardening can get pretty hot and heavy, and we don’t mean hauling bags of mulch. Come and learn how sex (pollination) makes our food, and how in turn, food can inspire sex (aphrodisiacs). This presentation is R-rated, so adults only are invited to think dirty.

Teacher
After working with a kids gardening project at a local community organization in the late 1990s, Lola Bloom realized that urban gardens are an ever-evolving tool for relationship building and creative expression. Lola did not grow up gardening, and learned most of her skills through mistakes and children’s books. She draws inspiration from nine years of teaching art and kitchen experiments. Lola has a BFA in Art Education from VCU and a Masters of Public Management from University of Maryland.
