Extension to hold gardening class

Martha Smith, a horticulture educator for University of Illinois Extension, will focus on problems in the landscape that are caused by weather, planting environment and the gardener in an upcoming class called “Don’t Blame the Plant.”

This program will be held at 1 p.m. Tuesday and at 7 p.m. Thursday.

All programs offered in this Summer Series will be held at Center for Agriculture DeKalb County Farm Bureau 1350 W. Prairie Drive in Sycamore. The presentation will be via the University of Illinois telenet system and local computer PowerPoint presentations, allowing live discussion between the instructor and gardeners throughout Illinois.
