New this year: Spring Saturday Workshop- Homegrown Tomatoes

Join us for a fun workshop about all aspects of growing tomatoes at home. We’ll discuss tips for selecting the best varieties, and how to plant and care for them. There will be a live demo on how to start your own plants
from seed. We’ll also share best practices for preventing and controlling common diseases and insect pests. Bring your questions and experiences to the discussion – and you’ll leave with a tomato seedling, to grow indoors at home until it’s ready for your container or garden.
