Garden forum April 3

Written by 

Experienced growers Ron and Kathy Arps will lead a panel discussion about home gardening at 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 3, in the community room of the Jackson County Library in Sylva. The Arps three-quarter-acre garden just outside of Sylva is totally muscle-powered. Other panel members include Lynn Jones, who lives in Cashiers where gardening at 3,700 feet in elevation presents a host of challenges. The panel might also include some other area gardeners, all ready to share their experiences and answer questions. Co-sponsored by the Friends of the Jackson County Public Library. 828.586.2016.
