Set yourself up for a successful vegetable garden. Get your hands dirty with Master Gardener, Jerry Mills, as he lays down a comprehensive foundation for garden to table sustenance.
Each week Jerry will guide you through everything you need to know: the soil and seeds; planning the bed, mulch and water; plant diseases, weeds, unwanted events, and what to do about them.
His method is perfect for anyone who has never picked up a garden hose, and is loaded with info for a weathered gardener.
Take each class individually, or take all 4 weeks of focused know-how so you can hit the ground growing!
Arboretum Members! Look for the MEMBERS ONLY listing to take advantage of your special pricing member's perk!
Week 2 The PLOT Plan
In this session, break down the options of what to plant, and when. Get tips on ways to save space by planting "up" or "out." Ask yourself if you want a Salad Garden or a Salsa Garden, or a Storage Garden. Learn which vegetables tolerate heat, and which are cool season "A" vegetables. There will be specific info on planting in small spaces and for choosing seeds that produce the healthiest varieties, with lots of specific recommendations. Also, find out what makes a HYBRID or HEIRLOOM and why you might want them.
