Monday, April 10 from 4-6:30pm. In-Person TBD.

Set your garden up for success! Early spring—before the leaves and blossoms return to the trees—is a wonderful time to wake your garden beds up from their winter slumber. Instructor Jeff Klein will provide guidance on seeding wildflowers, using compost or fertilizer, and adding mulch. Learn to prune with style. This class is for novice and experienced gardeners alike and will meet off-site in the yard of a participant.

Please email jeffklein@gmail.com if you’d like to volunteer your space, especially if you have a variety of different perennials and shrubs. Note: Location will be emailed to students after registering.
