Master Gardener Julie Strnad gives us a preview of things to come this Sunday, June 1, from 9 am to 1 pm, as the LA County Master Gardeners return to the Green Tent with seeds and seedlings to give away. Pick up a FREE pack of seeds and one of these FREE green goodies:
Yummy, nutritious and pretty MICROGREENS. Every now and then, give them a little “haircut” by chopping the tops off and into your salad bowl, then watch as they keep growing even more.
Mixed lettuces, multiple varieties in a single container Salads are on the menu!
Cucumbers two ways: Bush
and climbing:
Sunflowers You know what they look like!
Arugula If you let them go to seed, you’ll be surprised at how spicy and nutty the flowers are!
Green Beans perfect for summer salads and sides.
Please note that there are fire recovery resources and information at the MG website. Check back often if you have concerns.
Don’t forget to recycle your plant 6 packs so the MGs can grow more plants for next month’s Green Tent!
