God decided to do some watering for us and stopped just in time for us to have our educational session with Master Gardener Phil Ramey. A group of about 15 folks unfolded chairs in the parking lot between Interfaith Hospitality Network and Harvest of Hope and Phil shared a lot of useful and interesting gardening information with us. He focused on weed control, late summer/early fall gardening opportunities and season-extension ideas, but the wisdom he imparted was broader than those areas.
Chris Ramsey, UT Extension agent, also attended and gave us a weed-identification lesson using weeds he pulled out of Harvest of Hope. It's good to put a name with a "face," even it it's a frustrating face!
A big thank-you to Phil and Chris for coming to talk to us. If anyone reading missed the event because of the rain and would like more info on Phil's talk, or if someone just wants more info, please comment back to the blog and I'll try to share what I wrote down.
Happy day!
