Good afternoon,

 

The urban gardening event with the Greater Alexandria Chapter of the NFB of
Virginia is on! 

 

Day: Saturday

Date: September 30, 2017

Time: 1:00-2:30pm

Location: The Fairlington Recreation Center 3308 S Stafford St, Arlington,
VA 22206

Activity fee: $5 per person

 

Have you ever wanted to know  how to maintain a healthy indoor garden in an
urban environment? 

Want to know what to plant, and how to keep your plants alive and healthy?

Want to know how to identify different kinds of herbs, flowers, and
indigenous plants that thrive in northern Virginia soil?

Want to get a little dirt under your well-manicured fingernails and get some
practice potting your own plant? 

 

If you answered yes to any of the above, you will not want to miss the
Greater Alexandria Chapter's September activity. We have the opportunity to
spend a little time with a certified master gardener, Patricia Ryan, who
will show us a few tricks about how to establish and maintain healthy plants
in our community and homes. Every participant will get a ceramic pot in
which they can plant something and take it home with them. The $5 activity
covers the cost of the materials we will use. 

 

Everyone is welcome to join us, so please spread the word. I do ask that
those who plan to participate RSVP to me by September 28 to let me know if
you plan to be there so we can be sure to have enough materials for
everyone. 

 

Come get your hands dirty with the Greater Alexandria Chapter of the NFB of
Virginia!

 

I look forward to seeing everyone there.
