Make a Hypertufa Trough

All materials will be provided to make a hypertufa (lightweight

concrete) trough. The thick porous walls of hypertufa allow hardy plants to

survive in a container over the winter. It’s also perfect for succulents. Size

is approximately 14 by 20 inches.  You

are welcome to bring your own container to use as a mold if you prefer.  We will offer two ways to form the container,

from the inside or outside of the form. Wear your ‘grubbies’ and prepare to get

dirty.  Includes a coupon for soil and a

starter plant. Fee: $40. Registration is required. Call 630-355-4000.
