Genesee County Master Gardeners will be offering a series of noontime, gardening-themed programs via Zoom. The classes offer a mix of garden inspiration and know-how.
Garden Talk “Easy Preserving” is offered on October 1. Catherine, a CCE Master Food Preserver volunteer, will demonstrate some quick and easy ways to preserve fall bounty from the garden. Catherine will show how to safely prepare infused flavored oils and flavored vinegars, and demonstrate how to make sauerkraut at home.
Join Master Gardener Brandie on October 15 and explore “What to do with those Dahlias.” Brandie will explain how she manages her dahlia collection. She will cover when to dig them up, how she overwinters her dahlias, and how to divide them.
On October 28, explore “A Witches Garden” with Master Gardener Connie. Witches were once considered wise women and healers. They used plants they grew or found in their environment to cure ills as well as cast spells. You too may have your very own witch’s garden – come explore the folklore and plants of the witch.
This series is free and open to all. Pre-registration is required at http://genesee.cce.cornell.edu/events. A confirmation email containing the link to join the program will be sent after registration.
