Busting Out All Over

 

 

Yes, it is Spring…that glorious time of year when everything that grows seems just ready to burst at any moment into a riot of color and excitement. And so it is at the Plant Barn…where, truth be told, Spring can be found at any time of the year.

Now for a serious moment or two. Yes, there will be more classes this season; just not quite yet. With the Chief Flower Floozy on crutches after a much needed foot repair, classes would be a real strain for the two Floozies remaining on duty at this busy time of year. But, the classes will return and in the meantime, the 'Chief' is busy planning and ordering for the best growing season ever! There will be more gifts and a wider variety…she always listens to your suggestions.

So check back here now and then and you will see a notice for a class…we promise! Or better yet, stop by the Plant Barn, in person, and see what has already arrived for the new year.

Here it is…

 
 

 
 

 
 

Coming soon. Very soon! Veggies 101. How and what to plant for putting food on your table and creating a beautiful garden at the same time. Now that makes sense!

And it's easier than you think. Do you have a 4'x8' spot in your backyard that isn't being used? How about a raised bed planter? Learn all about this and more on February 22^nd at the Plant Barn. 2 PM. All questions will welcomed and answered. Guaranteed.

 
 

Oops! Almost forgot. Herbs are food too. And so easy to grow. Surely you have room for a small herb garden?

 
 

Call 345-3121 to reserve a space in the class, or drop by and do it in person…at the Plant Barn! 406 Entler Avenue. Chico, of course.

 
  

Roses are red…and yellow and white and orange and purple and…

And if you want to know even more about roses, you will need to come to the Plant Barn on January 25^th at 2 pm. Angela Handy has agreed to teach a rose class. Yes, it's that Angela Handy, the Queen of Roses, Past and Future Rose Society President, a flower floozy that knows her roses! She will talk about all thing rosy; pruning, propagating and planting. Trust us, she can answer your question. Such as, are there any green roses? (Tip: the answer is yes)
