Tomatoes are the subject of Community Garden talk

Posted by Staff on August 1, 2022 - 7:54am

At 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, August 2, you can join local garden club members to learn about tomatoes from Master Gardener Stewart Coats of Hardin County. 

Coats will talk about starting, growing, soil conditions and disease control of tomatoes. Last year, Mr. Coats raised 1,600 pounds of produce for donation, and aims to beat that amount this year. Along with tomatoes, he grows onions, cucumbers, squash and more for donation, making him a great resource for anyone who has questions about growing those summer veggies.
