We have some very exciting garden classes coming up this month. All Garden Classes are Saturdays at 10:30am in the Monument Market and free for anyone and everyone. You can sign up in the Market to give me an idea of how many handouts to print and chairs to set up, but feel free to come even if you do not get a chance to sign up first!
