Weeds 101: Spring Section
April 12 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Think of what gardening would be like without the world of weeds. Learn how to identify the most common annual and perennial lawn and garden weeds using leaves, flowers, stems, and seeds. The fall section covers species that should be removed before winter, making next year’s garden more maintenance free. Ecologically friendly methods of managing weed infestations are discussed. Join the instructor on a walk through the gardens. Class is rain or shine.
This program takes place in person at Mt. Cuba Center on Friday, April 12, 2024.
