Gardening Seminar: Fall Cleanup—Savoring the Last of the Season

Fall is a great time to be in the garden. The weather is cooler and there is still time to create new beds, divide perennials, and tackle hardscaping projects, We can also enjoy the outdoors as we “put the garden to bed.” Learn tips and techniques for preparing your garden for winter. Not only will you be rewarded with a healthier garden next summer, your garden will be more beautiful all winter long.
