It’s a new gardening season and it’s easy to be tempted into buying one or more of each of those plants at the local nursery or plant sale! But now you have them home and have the next few months to plant, feed, water, and tend them.

Join Karen Creel, a Certified Garden Coach with over 30 years of experience in this class where we will tackle a few of the most popular warm weather vegetables. The plants covered include tomatoes, peppers, squash, cucumbers and more! Karen will provide you with a handout that you can print copies of each plant profile to fill out as we talk about planting, growing, fertilizing, tending, and spotting pest and disease problems.
