Grow Your Garden Workshop Series
The Grow Your Garden Series is a collection of hands-on workshops designed to bring plant related activities to people who want to increase their knowledge about gardening or those who just enjoy working with plants.
These workshops are hosted on the third Wednesday of the month, from March through November except for May and August.
All workshops are sponsored by the Lyon County Extension Master Gardeners.
Workshops start at 6:00 p.m. at the Lyon County Extension Office either in our meeting room or the garage portion of the office depending upon the workshop. All workshops during the months of March through September will cost $20.00 and workshops in October and November will be $25.00. Payment will be collected at the beginning of each workshop.
Extension Master Gardeners are trained volunteers who assist K-State Extension - Lyon County with horticulture community outreach.
