About the Event
Bountiful Berries
Berries are a rewarding garden plant. Berry plants are perennial, producing fruit year after year making them a wise investment. This Master Gardener sponsored presentation will cover the planting, care and maintenance of 4 of the most common garden berries, blueberries, strawberries, raspberries and blackberries. Join us to discover and learn about the wonderful world of berries.
Presenter Bonnie Dwyer comes from a long line of Vermont dairy farmers and vegetable gardeners. Working in the family vegetable plot was a dreaded task as a child but it has become a life passion. One of her fondest memories , of days on the farm, is picking wild berries with her grandma Ada. Between the berries and the picnic, which always came AFTER the picking, berries have a fond place in her heart. Bonnie has been a Master Gardener since 2013, she is an active participant in many MG projects including the help desk and “Ask a Master Gardener” tables. The common thread running through her Master Gardener service is the love of imparting wisdom and knowledge to home gardeners which will inform and encourage them to KEEP GROWING! .
