Cover Crop Field Day, Saturday April 14 @ 11 am (2012)

Calling all Brooklyn Gardeners!  Please bring family & friends, and join us for a:

 Cover Crop Field Day

Saturday, April 14, 11 am

Hart to Hart Garden

(Hart St. between Tompkins & Marcy in Bedford-Stuyvesant)

 

Come and see how Hart to Hart gardeners are using cover crops for a healthier, more sustainable garden!

  • See cover crops planted last fall, explore their benefits for soil quality and keeping down weeds, and learn best practices for using cover crops in YOUR garden!
  • Sign up for more information about a garden-based research and education project in 2012-2013 to learn about the best cover crops for NYC gardens.  The program will offer free seeds, soil tests, materials, and regular workshops at a limited number of dedicated gardens in (or near) Bedford-Stuyvesant.
  • Kids: Participate in “science stations” to explore the amazing world of soil and plants.
  • Refreshments and fun for the whole family!
