Fall gardening!
- Wednesday, September 11, 2024, 5:00 PM - 7:45 PM
Join Master Gardeners for a lightning round of three important fall gardening topics.
5:00-5:45 Planting Fall Bulbs with Anneke Larrance, MGV
Remember how you admired that sea of nodding daffodils last spring? How you sighed over a bright expanse of sturdy tulips? Or maybe you appreciated a small planting of grape hyacinths mixed with crocus. Come and learn more about fall bulb planting for spring beauty. Learn how to plan and plant your own palate of spring color that will greet you and the pollinators when the North Country winter has broken. Each attendee will take home a set of bulbs!
6:00-6:45 Soil Sampling and Testing with Erica LaFountain, Community Horticulture Educator
Fall is the best time to test your soil. Find out how to get a representative soil sample and how to submit it for testing. Learn how to interpret your results and where to go for help.
7:00-7:45 with Juli Pomainville, MGV
Juli has a knack for putting together resources. In this session, she will share her fall garden checklist and make it available to you all to help you enter winter with your gardening supplies ready for spring.
