"Edible Landscaping" will be presented by Jackie Burkey, University of Minnesota Extension Master Gardener, at noon Tuesday at the Brainerd Public Library.
This presentation will show participants how to eat local, from your own garden, without the long straight rows in the backyard. Burkey will discuss ideas on how to mix fruits and vegetables with your flowers and shrubs. Register for this free program by calling the library at 218-829- 5574.
Free Master Gardener classes through the UMN Extension Crow Wing County Master Gardeners will take place at the library through December. Monthly presentations facilitated by certified Master Gardeners will discuss subjects ranging from garden tools to gourds. Master Gardeners are University of Minnesota-trained volunteers whose job is to educate the public about a variety of horticulture subjects using readily-available, up-to- date research-based information. The Master Gardener Program educational effort is designed to enhance the public's quality of life and to promote good stewardship of the environment.
