Alameda Backyard Growers - Planning your Spring Vegetable Garden and Companion Planting
The rains have come (a
little), the trees are blooming and spring will soon be upon us. It’s time to
pull together all those random thoughts you had dreaming over seed catalogs and
put together your spring garden. Marla Koss and Alison Limoges will share their experience and expertise in garden
planning and planting. Marla has successfully produced fruits and vegetables in
Alameda dirt for over 30 years. Gradually taking on practices of companion
planting (clustering plants that work well together and separating those that
don't) has improved her garden's health and won her over. Alison is an Alameda
County Master Gardener, and supervises the garden program at Mastick Senior
Center. Bring your questions and get your trowels ready!
