Boost Your Garden Skills with Free Winter Classes at Pybus Market

The WSU Chelan-Douglas Master Gardener Program is hosting a string of free gardening courses, dubbed "Productive Winter: A Garden Planning Series," at Wenatchee's Pybus Public Market in January and early February.

The classes will be held in the market's Board Room, accessible via its own entrance on the southeast corner of the property. Classes invariably start at 10 a.m. and last 45 minutes to an hour. Registration is appreciated but not required.

These classes aim to help gardeners prepare for the upcoming season - empirical data will be utilized, but so will anecdotal experience.

Each session offers practical advice on design, fire-resistant landscaping, raised-bed gardening and plant care.
