Free program. Gardening expert Melissa Irwin presents an in-the-garden program about gardening in a smaller space. Productive gardens don’t always require a large yard. Learn how you can grow food, herbs and flowers for your family with only a small space. Whether you have a postage-stamp yard, a couple of raised beds, or just a sunny balcony, you might be surprised how much you can grow with just a little bit of soil and a lot of creativity! Irwin will explore vertical gardening, too. Free, but space is limited. Registration is preferred but not required. Register online at buttonwoodnaturecenter.org. Hosted by Buttonwood Nature Center in partnership with Monterey Pass Battlefield Park.
