Sky seminars - extending your harvest and bonsai basics



Saturday September 15th                       11am – 12:30pm

Extending Your Harvest - Emily Wilkins and Joe Abken

With the sun starting to lose its summer strength, learn how to extend your harvest through fall and into the depths of winter.  With care, we in the Northwest can eat fresh food from our gardens twelve months out of the year!  Joe and Emily will talk about crops that can be sown or transplanted now for a winter or spring harvest, and show a number of simple season-extending devices, from Hooplas to traditional French market-garden cloches to pop-up greenhouses, which can protect your more tender crops from winter cold.


Sunday, September 16th                        1pm – 2:30pm

Bonsai Basics - Robert Cho of Asia Pacific Gardening

Let Robert Cho introduce you to the wonderful art of bonsai.  These living sculptures are surprisingly easy to create or maintain once you master a few basic techniques and learn how to work with your tree’s natural growth habits.  Robert will cover what you need to know to create and care for your bonsai.
