I'm reaching out to see if anyone, in the area (or beyond), would be interested in coming to a "Native Wildflower Seed Starting Workshop"?

I'm reaching out to see if anyone, in the area (or beyond), would be interested in coming to a "Native Wildflower Seed Starting Workshop"?
I have collected, dried & cleaned many varieties of seeds, last fall, from a wide range of native flower & grass seeds, which I have been growing in my 1/3 acre "meadow" & gardens, in a wide range of sites, plus, wild native varieties of perennials, grasses, vines, shrubs & some trees, which will do well in various soils, exposures & moisture.
The workshop will offer an exclusive, organic potting soil, at least 3 varieties of seeds, depending on the number of participants & a wide range of information that I have gathered, from 50 years of home & professional gardening, a number of nurseries & now my intense love of our native plants & pollinators, which I'd love to share!
I would like to schedule a number of times & weekend(?) days, if needed.
My indoor "Plant Room" is filled with blooming & foliage plants, many of which will be available for purchase, also.
My space & seating is somewhat limited, but I do have a potting bench & a few other surfaces where "standing to plant" would be available. Ideally, I'd love to find a "community" space, with tables & chairs, sufficient for a larger amount of participants. I would certainly be happy to clean up & put away tables & chairs, etc.
I've put many hours into seed collecting, cleaning, packaging & the expense of making the best possible potting soil, which I use for my own plants, so I will probably need to have a charge to cover supplies & time, though that is not something that comes easily to me!
I would also love to have children participate, if room allows!
I'd be glad to hear from anyone who would like to participate or has thoughts about a larger space.
Any ideas would be welcome!!!
Thanks, Lynette
