The Rutgers Master Gardeners of
Mercer County will host a program, “Putting the Garden to Bed” on Saturday,
October 5, from 1:00 – 3:00 p.m. The program will be held at the Mercer Educational
Gardens, 431 A Federal City Road, Pennington,
adjacent to the Mercer
County Equestrian
Center.
Preparing your garden for the
winter can enrich the soil and make your spring startup much easier. Master Gardeners will demonstrate ways to
clean out your garden beds; protect trees, shrubs and tender plants; eliminate
sources of disease and insect infestation; and prepare tools for winter
storage. To benefit the Rutgers Master
Gardeners of Mercer County educational programs, a donation of $3.00 is
suggested.
