Mojave County’s Seed-to-Supper Gardening Program goes online. Presented by the Mojave County Public Health Department, this series of programs will feature his presentations online from 6-8 p.m. on April 5, 12, and 19. There will be two one-hour presentations each week.
The free series takes participants through the development and harvesting of vegetables and orchards. This program can be a great help for first-time gardeners, but it’s also designed to help those who already have green thumbs.
The program will also be offered directly in the City of Lake Havasu in July.
If you are interested in participating in the online program, please email the organizer, Zen Mocarski (mocarz@mohave.gov).
A link will be sent approximately one week prior to the first presentation and all relevant materials will be emailed as Microsoft Word or PDF attachments.
To join, you need the Microsoft Teams app on your desktop computer or mobile device. Teams apps are available for free in most app stores.
