Assist our Master Gardeners with the annual autumn “putting the garden to bed” day at the historic grounds and gardens of the Morrill Homestead. Tasks include cutting back perennials and pulling annuals, raking, mulching, weeding, bringing old plants to the compost area—generally cleaning up the kitchen garden and ornamental garden beds and preparing them for the winter and the next growing season. (Master Gardeners can earn outreach hours with us.) All Welcome!
Basic garden tools will be on hand. Snacks and beverages will be available throughout the morning.
Please preregister.
