Prepare your garden now for a healthy spring!
About this Event Before you stack logs on the fireplace or put away your grill, now is the time to check on a few chores in the garden. We’ll explore ways to ensure that the resources your garden needs next Spring are safely secured this Fall. Let’s make sure that everyone is tucked in before the cold weather sets in. This webinar is free, but donations are gratefully accepted!
