Program Living at the edge of open space can present challenges to the home gardener. Do you look out the window and find your carefully cultivated fruits and vegetables are partially eaten? Or, are your plants are disappearing? It’s likely your garden is being appreciated by gophers, rats, squirrels, or raccoons. Marin Master Gardener Lois Stevens will provide information and discuss techniques to help home gardeners cope with these garden pests.
Speaker Lois Stevens has been a UC Marin Master Gardener since 2008 and has been gardening for more than 50 years. She is the past chair of the Marin Master Gardener Help Desk, has been responsible for training new Master Gardeners, served on the Board of Directors, and makes presentations about the Master Gardener program and garden related topics at events such as this.
