Event Series Event Series: Urban Growers Summer Series

Urban Growers Summer Series: Who’s Eating My Kale? A Summer Pest and Disease Tour

July 23 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm

| Free

Join UMaine Extension and our community partners for a series of three workshops for urban gardeners and farmers. Held at different sites in Portland, these sessions will focus on practices that help growers increase their resilience in an urban setting. Participants may join us for as many sessions as they are able; please note that each workshop REQUIRES a separate registration.

To Register: Who’s Eating My Kale?

Are critters nibbling on your veggies? Are plants developing strange colors, or wilting unexpectedly? Join Cooperative Extension, Cultivating Community, and MOFGA for an interactive tour of the common pests and diseases that appear at the height of summer. We’ll search over fruits and under leaves to help growers increase their comfort with diagnosing what ails their plants, and learn strategies for improving the health of their gardens.
