This gardening class is offered both online as a virtual class and on-site as an in-person class. 

Proper watering, fertilizing, pruning, edging, deadheading, staking, and mulching practices make the difference between a healthy, well-kept garden and a landscape that gets ahead of you. You will have a hands-on opportunity to practice what you learn, so bring along a pair of pruners. Please dress for the weather.

Please choose either the on-site or online class attendance option. The online class will be taught online via Zoom. All registrations must be submitted online two days before your class starts. Registered students will receive login instructions one day in advance.
