One of our propagators, Patti Tauscher, is also a movie maker. She has developed a television series called SEED UP! which is a modern take on the age-old art and science of horticulture. Each new episode introduces the classes, people and projects comprising the renowned Landscape Horticulture Department at Merritt College. Be ready for unique tours of the private gardens of professors and students. Take a fresh look at urban community gardening, propagation, pruning, permaculture, flower arrangement and more.
