FREE Seed Share, Saturday, February 25, 2017

Dear Folks,

My last FREE Seed Share at Mesa Urban Garden is this coming Saturday at Mesa Urban Garden (MUG).

Mesa Urban Garden
Saturday, February 25, 2017, 1:30 p.m.
212 East 1st Avenue (NEC Hibbert and 1st Avenue)
Mesa, Arizona 85201

I will be answering your questions on growing edibles in the desert.

You NEED to get your seeds in for spring/summer plants before the March temperatures gallop into the 90s.  Tomatoes particularly benefit and reward you with as early a planting as you can.

This will be MY LAST Free Seed Share until Fall.

. . .

UPDATE on my Poll

I asked for your votes on preferred digital access to my workshop "Growing & Using Herbs".

This is a 3 day workshop I have given in the past which covered, in 7-9 hours, all you need to know to grow culinary herbs successfully in the Desert Southwest and USDA Zone 9b and above.  Included is information on 48 herbs, pairing, companion planing, theme gardens and more.

81% of you favored a PDF manual with a slide show (PDF form).

I want to say a BIG thank you to all who took the time to vote.

I will be working on refining the workshop and let you know when it will be available for purchase.

In the meantime, come on out Saturday and Get Your Growing On!
