Gardeners of Burlington presents guest speaker Anna Leggatt: “Vegetable gardening in containers”.

Date: Wednesday, Feb. 12th, 2025 from 7:00 to 9:00 pm via ZOOM (Virtual)

This talk will focus on growing vegetables in small spaces and will include issues such as containers, maximizing space, successful plants, soil, watering, micro-greens, and possible problems. The effort to grow vegetables at home is rewarded by their superior taste as well as giving you a feeling of satisfaction by being able to eat your own produce.

She has published extensively on gardening websites as well as in Toronto Life Gardening, Landscape Ontario, and the Globe and Mail.
