Class Description

So, you want to grow bigger blooms, nutrient packed, disease-free vegetables, that require less watering? Start composting! Listen in to Extension Master Gardener Nina DeRosa as she discusses easy ways to use organic waste, including kitchen scraps, yard waste, and ash from backyard fires to make black gold for your soil that will then feed your plants.

We know there is an ongoing problem with the registration process via Zoom that requires folks to double register. We create the original registration form about a month before the class is scheduled. Unfortunately, the presenters aren’t usually ready to share the class resources until the week of the class.  When we edit the registration email to add the resources, it results in forcing folks who registered before the revised mailing to re-register. Our apologies!

After you register,

  • You will receive an immediate email Zoom confirmation with the link to the class and some registration questions.
    PLEASE CHECK YOUR EMAIL FOR REGISTRATION CONFIRMATION – make sure to check your SPAM folder.
  • You will receive a reminder confirmation with resource materials the day before the class.
  • Please add events@mgnv.org and webmaster@mgnv.org to your address book, so that emails from MGNV do not go into your spam or junk folder.

Registration stays open until the end of the meeting.
