Upcoming Events
Fall Veggie Gardening
Florida is a wonderful place to live, because while our
northern neighbors are starting to hunker down for winter, we are
planting fall vegetable gardens. Fall is a great time of year to
grow leafy favorites, like cabbage,
collards, mustards and broccoli. We'll talk about all of the great vegetables that
grow through the winter in Florida, and we'll also discuss gardening in
pots and Earthboxes (a great way to grow veggies in small spaces).
