January 30, 2019 - In our gardens, there are various ways of increasing crop harvest. One of those ways is succession planting. It is simply the planning and planting of varieties that will mature in a succession as companion plants. The goal is to extend your harvest by staggering plantings of crops or planting varieties with staggered maturing dates.

The Mariposa Master Gardeners are offering a FREE “Succession Planting” workshop:

• When: Saturday, February 16, from 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
• Where: Greeley Hill Community Center, 10332 Fiske Rd, Coulterville, CA 95311
• Who: Betty Massey, Mariposa Master Gardener
• Topics:
  • Spring gardening vs. fall gardening
  • Spreading out your planting so you have fewer vegetables over a longer growing period
  • The importance of Soil Temperature

Registration is required for this FREE workshop to reserve your spot, receive handouts, and to be notified of any last minute changes. Register online at: http://cemariposa.ucanr.edu or call 209-966-2417.
