Vegetable Gardening 101

Admission is FREE but getting tickets is important so we can plan for attendance and notify you if there is a change in plans due to weather.

Join us to learn about different types of vegetable gardens and discuss layout, variety choices, and growing techniques. Vegetable Gardening is something everyone can enjoy, from the novice to experienced gardener. It can be a way to bring fresh food to your table, a way to teach children where food comes from, or even a way to beautify your yard! We'll look at different types of vegetable gardens and discuss layout, variety choices and growing techniques.
