7th Annual Zucchini Festival Winners
Perennials

Our Zucchini Festival proved to be another year of creative entries.  Although the weather this year did not produce the abundant zucchini crop we are used to, we still managed to have numerous entries that made us smile.  Thank you to those who submitted nominations. 

Our best dressed zucchini (pictured left) stole our hearts.  The largest zucchini was a hefty 12 lbs. 

Start planning your entries for next year!

Darren's Gardening Tips
Darren Morgan

October is the perfect time to plant spring bulbs, trees, shrubs, perennials, ontion, garlic, and berries!  For the optimal germination, plant soon and the winter rain will get your plants off to a great start.  Remember to consider organic fertilizers and lime for best results
 
If you weren't happy with your lawn this summer, it is the perfect time to consider thatching or aerating.  See more info on our latest blog.  Also consider overseeding grass and treating weeds, pests, and fungal diseases. 

Now is the time to buy roses!  They are still showing some bloom and on sale for $10 each (while supplies last).

We look forward to meeting all your gardening needs during the month of October.  We hope to see you soon around the Garden Center.


Sincerely,

The Shonnard Family
