Although it is still technically winter there is much to do in the garden. Â On Saturday, March 2nd, experienced gardeners will come together to share garden-based knowledge, experience and ideas to help you achieve greater success in early season gardening.
Workshop participants will:
- Learn season extension techniques.  By managing your garden’s microclimates you can extend the growing season and harvest vegetables earlier in the spring and later in the fall.
- Get first hand experience with ‘cold hearty’ greens, which thrive in Pound Ridge’s cold season.
- Learn how to test your soil’s quality and incorporate your test results.
- Learn the ins and outs of seed starting (tools to use, when to start, how to harden off plants)
This workshop is intentionally scheduled early in the season to allow workshop participants to learn new skills and incorporate them this year.
Time: 11 am-1 pm
Location: The Armstrong Education Center. Â 1361 Old Post Road, Pound Ridge, NY.
This event is free and open to the public.
