t’s time to get growing! Join horticulturist Nina Koziol as she explores how to get the most from your garden’s tomatoes, beans, peppers, squash, and other edibles from spring through fall. Don’t have a garden plot? We’ll also talk about growing edibles in containers.
Draw inspiration for your own garden from the history of home garden design. We'll look at how home garden design has changed since the Midwest was first settled. Learn more about design evolution, the rise of the suburban lawn movement, foundation plantings, cottage gardens, moon gardens, and heirloom plants, to name a few. We'll take the best of these design ideas and examine how they can be used in your own garden, no matter what age or style home you own.
It’s not summer without a bounty of juicy tomatoes. Discover how to select, grow, harvest, store and prepare these nutritious fruits as well as onions, peppers, shallots, basil and cilantro. Everything you need for a basic salsa and sauce right from your garden!

There are 2 sessions: one covering shade gardens and another for sunny spaces. The well-designed border wears a combination of perennials, annuals, and shrubs that provide three seasons of color and winter interest. These classes will cover how to artfully combine plants with an emphasis on the use of color, texture, and form. You can register for one or both.
