Four Seasons Gardening Series Available Online this Fall

Submitted by the University of Illinois Extension

Beginning this fall, the popular University of Illinois Extension Four Seasons Gardening program will be available through free online webinars for local residents to participate in from the comfort of their own homes.

Registration is currently open for the first fall session, Practical Weed Control. Join Weed Science Specialist Michelle Wiesbrook as she discusses various types of weed control methods on either Tuesday, Sept. 22 at 1:30 p.m. or on Thursday, Sept.24 at 6:30 p.m.

Nothing is certain but death, taxes, and, for gardeners, weeds. Weed control is a necessary evil that can be back-breaking and wrist-aching work. Gardening practices can affect your weed populations and some weed controls work better than others. To learn more or to register for at-home participation, visit web.extension.illinois.edu/hmrs/4seasons.

Other upcoming topics in the fall series include Vegetative Propagation in early October, and Abiotic Plant Problems on Landscape Plants in late October.
