What can you plant in cooler temperatures?  This month, we will learn how to keep your garden going through the winter.  And as you are cutting back those summer plants, don’t let that plant material go to waste.  Get some great ideas for projects you can make!

In The Garden With Cyndi is a fun, casual gardening class for adults where you get to learn tips and tricks, get your hands dirty, and get expert advice on a myriad of gardening techniques and best practices.

Cyndi Czerkawski is an experienced gardener and educator.  She has spent years accumulating knowledge about gardening and is ready to pass that on to you!
