Postponed - Event - Optimizing Vegetable Gardens with Soil and Water Management - Potsponed
We regret to inform you that we have postponed our planned event entitled "Optimizing Your Vegetable Garden with Soil and Water Management" that was scheduled for September 20. However, we are rescheduling the event for the Spring of 2026 so, watch for announcements and registrations.
There was a combination of roadblocks that confronted us and resulted in a very small number of registrations. So, we decided to recycle the place, VSU, and speakers for next Spring which will provide some valuable information on soil and water management at the BEGINNING of your vegetable gardening next year.
We are working on getting refunds to all who have registered as well. You can send questions to Leslie Paulson at ljp6651@comcast.net or Fern Campbell Fern Campbell gcret@gmail.com
We look forward to seeing you next Spring.
