About this Event

Put your garden to bed but not to sleep! Preparing the garden for winter, or winterizing the garden, is an important part of growing a healthy garden all year round! Learn different methods for covering your garden beds to keep your soil healthy including using mulches, cover crops, and physical barriers. We will also discuss season extension methods and seed saving basics.
