Thinking of a Winter Garden? – Grow Asian Greens!
About the Event
Program: Two Master Gardeners, Bonnie Marks and Mamie Yee – one living in Point Reyes and the other in San Rafael, will discuss why you may want to grow Asian greens in your garden. They will teach you how to grow them – from planting to harvest, including ideas about growing them in containers. They’ll cover seed sources and potential pests so that you can be ready to plant this month and gather tasty greens in 40-60 days. They will also share some ways to prepare them.
