2021 Garden Calendar
Given the overwhelming renewed interest in gardening this past year, West Virginia University Extension Service is helping both novice and seasoned gardeners gain tips, educational information and more via the 2021 garden calendar. “The Science of Gardening” looks at the science-based information behind gardening. Calendars are available at the WVU Extension Office in the basement of the courthouse, and will be available online in early 2021.
