Extending the Gardening Season
Friday, August 16th @ 12pm

Just because we have had frost and hard freezes that should not prevent you from growing food. Many cool season crops can grow well into the winter with a little protection from the elements. Learn what crops grow best and how to extend them into the winter and how to get a jump on harvest in the early spring.
