Gardening Series at Highland Gardens Greenhouse

With Master Gardeners Kal Farr and Roger Dixon

 Vegetable Gardening Series for Beginning Gardeners:
The class will focus on gardening skills for people who have limited experience in vegetable gardening.  The course will address the following questions:

Where should I locate my garden?  How large should a vegetable garden be?  What should I plant?   What tools will I need?  How much time will it take?  How do I irrigate the garden?  Is a garden cost effective?  What about fertilizer?   How can I control weeds, plant diseases and insects?

Instructors:  Kal Farr and Roger Dixon.  Kal was the CEO of Thanksgiving Point and was instrumental in developing the gardens there.  Roger is trained as a Master Gardener and is the President of the Utah County Master Gardener Association.  Both are old farm boys with incurable “green thumbs”.
