Welcome to the Herb Society of America, Baton Rouge Unit
Towel Hypertufa Class
Sunday, September 15, 2019, 1:00 - 4:00 p.m.
LSU Ag Center Botanic Gardens Pavilion, 4560 Essen Ln, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70809
There are a few spaces left at our next Towel Hypertufa class, if anyone would like to get in on this fun technique for making garden containers. This session of our popular class is scheduled for September 15, 2019, at the LSU Ag Center Botanic Gardens, 4560 Essen Lane, in Baton Rouge. The class will be in the Pavilion from 1:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m.
This hypertufa technique uses towels (hand, face cloth, etc.) to make garden containers. The towels are dipped into a liquid mixture of portland cement and other materials, then draped over a form; when they harden, they form a strong, unique container.
The class is $10 for HSABR members and $15 for non-members. Register by clicking the button below. You may pay via PayPal or check; both the PayPal link and the mailing address for checks are on the confirmation page that will appear after you submit your registration. Your registration is not complete until payment is received.
Class size is limited, so please register as soon as possible. You will be sent special instructions to prepare for the class after you register.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact Cathy Cashio at njcashio@cox.net or call 225-603-7158.
