Mason County Master Gardeners Tessa Halloran and Christy Rowe talk with Jeff Slakey about the upcoming plant sale organized by the Master Gardeners of Mason County. They highlight the variety of plants available, including tomatoes, herbs, perennials, and native plants, as well as educational opportunities such as soil screenings and workshops. The funds raised from the plant sale support community garden projects, workshops, and educational outreach. Additionally, they discuss the process of becoming a Master Gardener and the importance of native plants and water-wise gardening practices, especially in the context of climate change. They also mention events in Hoodsport and Catalyst Park, which provide more opportunities for the community to get dirty!
