Event Details
You may be asking “Isn’t it too early to talk about this now? My tomatoes have just started to get ripe!” The answer is that as our summer vegetables begin to slow production in late July and August, it’s the perfect time to sow new seeds and plant seedlings for the cooler months. This lead time will give your cool-season seeds time to germinate and the seedlings time to get established before cold winter temperatures arrive. UC Master Gardener Susan Bancroft will go over the basics such as soil, water and fertilizing requirements, and discuss different cool season vegetables that will do great in your garden
10 to 10:45 am – Garden Talk in the McClellan Ranch Community Garden
