Free Garden Clinic Wednesday May 25th 6:30pm
We’re excited that Ken Brown, long-time host of WBEN's The Home Garden Show, former Cornell Cooperative Extension Agent, and owner of Field of Dreams Farm, a cut-your-own Christmas tree farm in South Wales, has agreed to teach the PCG’s first community gardening clinic. The clinic will run from 6:30-7:15 during the open house. Ken’s topic is “gardening fundamentals” and will cover: Soil fundamentals and amendments, Garden planning and planting and Garden maintenance. Look for future community garden clinics on organic pest and weed control and food preservation.
