FARMINGTON – Healthy Community Coalition Staff and master gardeners will be offering gardening tips and a hands-on demonstration on Thursday, July 2 from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. at the Hope Harvest Garden next to Franklin Memorial Hospital.
Participants will be able to take home their own container garden. All plants and supplies are free, while supplies last.
Container gardening is a fun and easy way to enjoy fresh vegetables regardless of whether one has limited space in their yard. Container gardens grow well on sunny steps and entryways and are a fun way for individuals and children to learn about growing their own fresh fruits and vegetables.
In addition, Mobile Health Unit staff will be offering free health screenings, education and information. For more information contact Janis Walker at 779-2750.
