Gardening All Year Around Presentation Well Attended

On Saturday February 16 master gardeners Mary Masterson and Kay Snyder discussed the challenges and opportunities of using various methods to extend the growing season, from growing mushrooms and sprouts indoors to constructing various types of tunnels or applying different types of row cover outside during colder weather. They explained how to select seeds and plants that are most appropriate for different seasons of the year in this region. In addition to sharing handouts, they brought in examples as well as photos of some of the projects that they have each tried. The event was hosted by Friends of the Park and had over 40 people attending in the meeting room at Penn Sate Extension.
