On Saturday at 9:30 a.m., the Master Gardeners of Montgomery County are holding an in-person workshop to help gardeners enhance their lawn and gardens by understanding and managing weeds.
There is no charge for the event, but donations are appreciated. Space is limited and pre-registration is required. Pre-register for the event here.
Attendees will learn to distinguish invasive and noxious weeds from beneficial native weeds that contribute to an ecologically sound landscape. Participants will also learn how to control or eradicate undesirable weeds using a knowledge of their life cycles and the Integrated Pest Management approach.
Workshop presenters are Master Gardeners of Montgomery County, volunteers who have been specially trained and certified by Penn State Extension. Master Gardeners provide education on a broad range of horticultural topics and can advise community residents on best practices based on university research and recommendations.
The location for the workshop is the Maple Room, 4H Center at 1015 Bridge Road (Route 113), Collegeville, PA 19426. Enter through the rear of the building. Â Please call toll free 877-345-0691 to register. If you have questions, call 610-489-4315. Free parking is available.
