It is time to change your clocks and spring forward. Daylight
Savings Time officially begins Sunday, March 8, 2020, at 2:00 a.m.
Are you procrastinating? If you have not started planning your
2020 gardens, rest assured that it is not too late. In gardening, each year is a continuation of the journey when you first started getting your hands and feet dirty. Below is a list of
events and classes to nudge you.
After attending the 2019 Northeast Iowa Gardenhouse Tour, I became an instant
fan of K&K Gardens in
Hawkeye, IA, and can not wait to attend their gardening classes this spring.
Ever since my 4-H days, I have been a vocal supporter of Extension
Service just like my mother and have always been impressed with their Master Gardeners program.
