Garden Workshop: Kitchen Garden Basics

by | Jun 8, 2026

Enjoy the beautiful and organically-maintained grounds at Doris Duke’s Rough Point while you work in the garden and learn the basics of growing, harvesting, preserving and preparing a variety of different foods. We will work with classic produce such as tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers and culinary herbs, as well as unique plants, medicinal herbs, and edible flowers. The exact plants and preparations will vary based on what is in season. Discover how to identify and stock your pantry with nutritious food that will last all year long, and leave with preserved and fresh food in hand for your personal use.

This workshop takes place rain or shine and is family-friendly.
