Who's at the Market this Saturday? Cheverly Master Gardeners!

This is really gross, isn't it? Many of us have started gardens this year, and some of us need a bit of reassurance, or just some occasional good advice. That's where Dave and Casey Kneipp and the Master Gardeners come in. Cheverly Community Market will have Master Gardeners available to diagnose plant and insect problems -- this is a great service (I recently got great advice from Casey -- she calmed me right down when I saw this nasty stuff on my lovely zucchini plants...) The Master Gardeners can also share advice and ideas for what to do with those healthy plants and how to get the most from all your gardening efforts. Bring your plant samples to the market and get a considered opinion...and terrific advice. (By the way, it's some sort of mold on those leaves -- due to the heavy rains and cool temperatures. And here I was ready to pull everything out, burn it and seal it in plastic bags! Thank goodness for the cooler heads of our Cheverly Master Gardeners!)
See you (and your plants) this Saturday at the Market!
