SUNDAY LECTURE SERIES RESUMES THIS SUNDAY on Jan. 8th, 2012 with Jane Maxwell who grows worms about 150 miles north of St.Petersburg. This presentation will provide information on the value of earthworm castings and how to use them in your garden. Jane will also provide some information on how to have your own earthworms producing vermicompost. Her worm castings are a big hit with our customers and their gardens because they can be used so easily in everything from large garden productions to small containers on condo patios. Let’s make those 150 miles worth the drive for Jane. Please come and welcome her to our Garden Lecture Series. Product will be available for sale during her visit. Market Manager encourages all attendees to either make a purchase or to donate what they can to help defray Jane’s fuel travel costs for this lecture.
