Hi Michelle,

Seed to Fruit, the flower shop on the east end of main st usually offers some classes in the spring. Also contact, education@commongroundfarm.org -Common Ground Farm offers lots of workshops throughout the year including a program right now on maple syruping. I would also be happy to share my knowledge/ experience--although I still think of myself as somewhat of a novice. I just planted my pepper, eggplant, chive seeds today and I can't wait for spring!!

I recently moved to Beacon, got our first house, and while I don't have a very large property, I want to try and do some veggie/herb gardening. Are there any classes or any seasoned gardeners that would be willing to give me tips/advice/etc?

Spring fever is hitting me early....I comfortably visualizing our veggie herb garden in my head as I write. NOTE: My attempts to keep deer out of our fenced in veggie garden last year failed miserably. I've got photos of those white-tailed little devils browsing at the salad bar! BUT I did learn acouple things, deer do not bother with tomatillos, okra, or fennel, and in most cases any plant in the herb family! Forget about the green pepper and tomatoes! Also for loversof cherry tomatos: "ground cherries" are a good cherry tomoato alternative (slight pineapple taste with a paper husk like the tomatillo) and are said to be blight resistant! yipee!

Niiiiice! Is Bank Square giving used coffee grounds for compost? If so, I might need some as we get closer to spring.

Bank Square will be hosting a milk tasting this Sat from 6-8pm. Hudson Valley Fresh is a co-op of several local dairy farms that produce some of the freshest and cleanest milk around. Check out their site to read more about their efforts. http://www.hudsonvalleyfresh.com/about.html
Coffee and lattes are 1/2 price and we'll have coupons for milk if you want to take some home. Tasting is FREE!
