” A lot of this was us learning how to grow and learning certain things like we struggled growing rosemary from seed this year, so we’re going to work on learning and how to do that a little bit better for next year. And so a lot of it’s learning for us, it’s learning from the public ” said Stacy Abney , Master Garden Volunteer.
