SUMMARY:Growing Together: Fall Planting & Garden Cleanup
DESCRIPTION:Prepare your garden for winter while setting the stage for a healthier\, more productive spring. This lesson explores what to cut back\, what to leave standing for wildlife\, what\, how and when to plant in fall\, and simple ways to protect your soil and perennial plants through the colder months.

Rooted in community and shared knowledge\, Growing Together offers a welcoming space to grow skills\, confidence\, and connection in the historic gardens. \nSpace is limited—pre-registration is required for this event.
