December

Perennial Vegetable Gardening NEW

Tuesday, December 3, 1–2:30pm
Pat’s Barn, limit 30

This workshop defines perennial vegetables and explains why we should grow them, how they differ from annuals, how to cultivate them, and how to fit them into your landscape. Thirty-five of the best perennials for our local gardens are presented, with links to detailed growing directions. The perennials are then listed opposite their corresponding annuals. Finally, if you are adventurous, an extensive list of perennials for the Mediterranean climate is given. Why not reduce your labor (and inputs), get reasonable yields, and explore new plants?
