I have some exciting news. The farmers at Hilltop Hanover have offered to do an educational series on a variety of topics, and they are flexible regarding the date, time, and location. A few potential ideas are:

- Pests and Disease: Identification, Management, and Control Strategies

- Irrigation 101: Sprinklers to Drip Tape

- Plant Supports and Pruning Basics

- Plant Families and Why they Matter

- Fertility Basics: Nitrogen, Phosphorous, and Potassium Oh My!

- Garden Planning for Dummies

Please fill out the survey which can be found here by April 13^th. We want to know if there is a desire for this, and if so, which workshop(s) are you all most interested in attending.

Finally, we had an inspiring event on February 27^th with wonderful presenters and interesting and productive conversations. Let me know if you did not receive and would like receive the presentations.

Thank you!

Best,
