On this week’s Good to Grow, hosts Denise and John will talk with special guest Dr. Kevin Floyd, the botanical curator of UTEP’s Centennial Museum and Chihuahuan Desert Gardens, who will share information about next week’s Spring Florafest happening on Saturday, April 12, at UTEP’s UGLC Plaza from 9 AM until 2 PM or until supplies last. The Florafest plant sale focuses mainly on native and desert plants adapted to our extreme temperatures and sudden freezes. There are also many master gardeners and local gardeners who volunteer to share their plant expertise with plant buyers at any level of gardening. Don’t miss this edition of Good to Grow, and stay tuned for the next episode!
The El Paso County Master Gardeners started in 1981 and has been growing with many volunteers and Master Gardeners ever since. The love of gardening and search for knowledge are primary reasons people join the program to become trained and certified Master Gardeners. Texas Master Gardeners are united in name, but the program’s strength lies in its ability to meet the diverse needs of the communities it serves.
