This event is held by the UMaine Cooperative Extension.
Here in Maine we’re now dealing with more periods of intense heat, prolonged drought, dramatic rain, and a slew of pests and diseases. How do we stay sane, prepare our gardens for success, and bounce back from the inevitable challenges? This workshop will cover a variety of strategies to ensure that our harvests are bountiful, and our spirits stay high. We’ll discuss crop succession planning, season extension, techniques to protect your veggies from the elements, and ideas for pest and disease management. You’ll leave feeling invigorated for the growing season!
