According to an article on the Gazette website, Rosalind Creasy, a garden and food writer, will speak at Brookside Gardens on April 28 to talk about edible plants for local home gardens.
A plant sale will follow the presentation offering things such as standard vegetables and herbs as well as spices and ornamental edibles—plants grown for both decoration and food. All the proceeds of this sale will help the community gardens program to purchase necessary items.
The number of area gardeners is sprouting, having doubled from 400 members last year to about 600 this year, and the community gardens have gone from one in 2009 to 10 in 2011 with plots still available in Rockville and North Silver Spring.
Here are the details of the Special Evening with Rosalind Creasy.
Date: Thursday, April 28, 2011
Time: 6:30 to 9:00 p.m.
Place: 1800 Glenallen Avenue, Wheaton
Price: $35.00
The plant sale dates are April 28 and 30. Plan to attend this informative and fun program to benefit our local community gardens!
