Program Description

Learn what to plant, when, how, and harvesting for your spring garden. Take home a free vegetable gardening guide published by the University of Florida, as well as pre-planted veggie seeds, and participate in the optional plant exchange activity. Bring a plant, or anything gardening-related you want to get rid of and take home something new. Growing your own food is safer, saves you money, and is proven to be a good exercise for your body and mind.

Children must be accompanied by an adult, and CDC guidelines will be met with masks and social distancing required. For more information, contact the Taylor Count Extension office at (850) 838-3508.
