Join us for a presentation by Master Gardener DMae Ceryes on tips for thrifty gardening.

Join us on the first Tuesday of the month for our Master Gardener series, presented by U of M Extension Becker County Master Gardeners. Master Gardeners are University of Minnesota-trained volunteers whose mission is to educate the public about a variety of horticulture subjects using readily-available, up-to-date research-based information. The Master Gardener Program educational effort is designed to enhance the public’s quality of life and to promote good stewardship of the environment.

August's presentation will focus on thrifty gardening with Master Gardener DMae Ceryes. Do you want to have a garden but everything just seems so expensive? Learn some tips to use what you may already have around the house, or things you may be able to buy cheaply, to do some of the garden tasks you will need to do.
