September 22, 1998 Wildlife Park Will Host Fall Gardening Workshop October 14 |
Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park will be sponsoring another of its popular series of Gardening with Native Florida Plants Workshops on Wednesday, October 14, 1998. Marion Knudsen, the park's volunteer gardening supervisor, will be presenting the program at the wildlife park in the Children's Education Center and the Garden of the Springs from 9:30 until noon. Knudsen refers to her program as "No Fuss, No Muss Gardening," and strives to make gardening as simple as possible. She recommends "lots of mulch, accent bushes, save all the trees, a splash of color here and there and cut down on all that grass. You save work, water and money." The workshop will feature fall gardening tips using native plants. Knudsen will also answer gardening questions. After the program she will take participants on a tour of the Native Florida Plant Garden in the Garden of the Springs. If you are interested in attending the gardening workshop, please call the park's office at 352-628-5343 Monday through Friday. Space is limited, so be sure to register early. Regular park admission will apply. Current season pass holders may use their season's pass to be admitted to the park, but must still call to register. |
