Gardening Circle

Do you have questions about plants you are growing in your garden? Want to share helpful information about a vegetable or flower that you love to grow? Come to our Gardening Circle Skill Share on Wednesday, August 24, 6–8 pm. This is a time to connect, share your knowledge, and help build a strong network of local plant enthusiasts. No registration required, but feel free to email Director of Education Matt Durham (matt@newtoncommunityfarm.org) to RSVP.
