It is designed to help those interested in starting a garden, regardless of size. The class will guide the essential requirements for a successful garden. 

The second class, “Growing On”, is scheduled for April 13th from noon to 4 p.m. Basic plant nutrition will be discussed, including options for the greatest yield, and provide practical information on effective pest control. 

Dr. Tera Howerton, Dean of Business and Technical Education, will teach the classes. Dr. Howerton has previously headed the college’s agriculture department, making her the ideal candidate to teach the classes.
