F5C. Gardening NOW!
Personal Growth | This course is completed
The spring garden is the time to recreate, renew, and rethink. Join us to learn about spring pruning, seed selection, when to plant, what to plant, and how to plant. We will discuss both local and online gardening sources, the best catalogs, and how to choose the right plant for the right location. There will be a different speaker every week. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced gardener, this is an opportunity to learn, to share, and to ask questions. It’s all about growing “your green thumb.”
