It’s a new year, which means there are new gardening trends to discuss. How do you garden in small spaces (indoor/outdoor)? How do you plant and take care of patio pots? And where do native plants fit into all of this?
Join the Horticulturists as they discuss these trends, and answer your gardening questions, in our first show of 2021. And we are super excited that they will be joined by guest Local Foods and Small Farms Educator Grant McCarty.
We cannot wait to catch up with all of you and learn about your gardening goals for the new year.
