Demonstrations, tastings and art in the garden are all part of the fun planned for this celebration of the season. Visitors will have the opportunity to try out some of our favorite garden tools and learn about certifying home gardens as pollinator-friendly with Extension.
Youths up to 12 years old can register for a 1K Harvest Fun Run, the route for which travels through farm fields next to the demonstration garden. This family-friendly event also includes other children’s activities and resources on pest management and soil testing.
This program is free and open to the public. Registration is required for the fun run only. Paper registration forms will be available on the day of the event. In the event of inclement weather, check the website for updates. For more information or to request a reasonable accommodation, contact Kate Garland, katherine.garland@maine.edu; 207.942.7396.
