Currituck County Master Gardener℠ Volunteer and owner of Fuggles Flower Farm, Dr. Emily Nekl is presenting this free class on Thursday, September 21, 2023 from 9:00 to 10:00 a.m. at the North Carolina Cooperative Extension Currituck County Center, located at 120 Community Way in Barco, North Carolina.

Cool temperatures and low humidity make winter gardening in zone 8 an enjoyable experience. In this class, we will discuss the fantastic possibilities of winter gardening including:

  • garden preparation,
  • timing, tunnel development,
  • and techniques in seed germination

that are specific to winter crops. There are numerous winter flowers and vegetables that perform well in our region.  Some examples of these plants are snapdragons, sweet peas, carrots and leafy greens.
