Here is an opportunity to learn and test your gardening skills (no previous experience required). We are looking for participants who like to get their hands dirty while having fun!
Participants will learn about some simple methods on how to garden at the training session on Thursday, March 5, from 6:30 – 8:00 p.m., at the Extension office in Dobson. Families will cover the basics of the mini garden process, planting, judging, and then will have time to ask questions. This “green” opportunity is open to any youth between the ages of 5 and 18. Some of the “early” garden vegetables participants will learn to grow will include onions, broccoli, cauliflower, various greens, and potatoes. All participants must attend the mini garden training on March 5. Participants will receive all garden materials at the end of the training.
Registration deadline is Tuesday, February 24. No participants will be allowed to participate after this date. Contest fee includes: garden and workshop materials, and entry to Summer Awards Night.
