It’s been hot outside lately, but fall is just around the corner, and with it comes “Fabulous Fall,” the Fall Workshop presented by Master Gardeners of the Ozarks. This popular annual event will take place on Saturday, September 14, at New Testament Christian Church, 21016 Main St. in Reeds Spring (intersection of Hwy. 76 and Hwy. 265).
Featured speakers and topics for the workshop include the following:
· “Managing Plant Diseases” by Brad Runsick, Extension Agent, Baxter County, Arkansas
· “Fall Vegetable Gardening” by Micah Humphreys, Associate Professor of Agriculture, College of the Ozarks
· “Fall Plants That Add Color,” by Lainey Harvick, Harvick Farms Nursery, Cassville, Missouri
· “Preserving Habitats with Fall Cleanup,” by Tom Riley, entomologist and Master Gardener of the Ozarks
Doors will open at 8 a.m., and the day’s activities begin at 8:30 a.m. with continental breakfast served by MGO members and the chance to shop at the MG Marketplace and other garden-themed vendors, as well as browse the many wonderful raffle items. (Come prepared with cash or checks for purchases, as credit and debit cards are not accepted at the workshop.)
The program will be from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., with a break for lunch provided by Lillee’s Catering of Nixa. In addition to time for Q & A with each speaker, regular workshop attendees always enjoy making new friends, as gardeners of all experience levels share and learn from each other.
