Add spice and color to your life with fresh herbs and flowers.
A flower garden can add a splash of color to your home landscape, and fresh herbs can be a flavorful addition to homemade meals. Our modern homesteading series continues with a free program on cut flowers and herbs. Horticulture Educator Chris Leuking will lead the program as she covers:
- Cut flower production

- Bed preparation
- Fertilizer
- Weed management
