The Southborough Library is bringing back Blackstone Valley Veggie Gardens for another gardening workshop this Tuesday. This time the focus is on growing “the most nutritionally dense food on the planet”.
I’ll also take this opportunity to remind readers that don’t have home gardens that Southborough has a Community Garden. I don’t know if there are any plots left this season, but you can check out the details here.
As for the library’s event, a promotion for the “Growing Leafy Greens” presentation promises to teach how to successfully grow “kale, spinach, chard and lettuce using several methods”.
The talk will take place on the Library’s main floor at 7:00 pm on April 29th. The free event is open to the public, with no registration required.
The presentation by BVVG will also be recorded by Southborough Access Media.
The Library’s website is also promoting a resource at the Library that gardeners who attend (or watch the talk) may be interested in:
Did you know that the Southborough Library offers a library seed exchange to its patrons? A library seed exchange is a free program where community members “borrow” seeds from the library at the beginning of the growing season in the hopes they will save seeds from their plants and return a portion to the library. Seeds are located on the Main Floor in the Judy Williams Reading room. For more information, click here.
