Couple this with a limitless  array of tried-and-true tricks of the trade, and you have a performance that is second to  none.

Free and open to the public, the program will feature Master Gardener Victoria Goddard and a discussion about why native plants are not only beneficial to pollinator insects and hummingbirds, but how to incorporate them into your existing flower beds, and landscape.

After the talk, guests may stick around and talk to other gardeners, and wander around the Community Garden Plots and Monarch Waystation.
