  • Tuesday, April 13, 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm – Virtual Vegetable Gardening 101

    To have a bountiful garden, “all” you need to do is provide your plants what they need. But what do they need?  And how do you provide it? Learn about sunlight, space, water and most of all soil, and you’ll have the basics to develop the garden you’ve always wanted. 

    This online Massachusetts Horticultural Society class on April 13 at 7 is part of its spring Introduction to Gardening series.

    Instructor: Gretel Anspach is a Lifetime Master Gardener with the Massachusetts Master Gardener Association, a Trustee of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society, and a recently-retired systems engineer for Raytheon. Gretel helped to establish and maintain two food production gardens that have provided fresh produce to the Marlboro Food Pantry for the last eight years. $20 for Mass Hort members, $30 for general public.
