Have you taken to gardening to pass the time or growing our own food to get through this strange period? If you’re like me, the idea is alluring but the reality reminds me that I inherited a black thumb.
Luckily, we all don’t need to be master gardeners to keep our plant babies thriving because there are many on-hand (virtually) to help.
UF/IFAS, Monroe County Extension Service is offering free online plant clinics to address residents’ plant, insect and gardening questions. These plant clinics will be held every Tuesday from 10AM-11AM via Zoom to align with current social distancing measures.
Use the following meeting ID to access the plant clinics: 154 161 568
Join Zoom Meeting: https://ufl.zoom.us/j/154161568
The master gardeners can also be reached by phone and/or email. Email your plant-related questions to mastergardener@monroecounty-fl.gov or call (305)292-4501. Please include a detailed description of the problem. Photos are very useful.
