Yakima County: Fall Symposium
“Year-Round Gardening”
The Joy of Gardening Through the Seasons
Our valley’s climate displays the variations among the seasons so very well. From the first push of a seed poking up through the soil’s crust in Spring, to rambunctious blooming of so many flowers of Summer, to the final few crispy leaves fluttering to ground in late Autumn, and then the unseen regrowth happening under the frost and snow in Winter, preparing to start again in Spring.
There is so much to experience in our gardens.
And while this goes on in unending cycles, critical insects quietly and surreptitiously influence all the progress being made.
In October, the WSU Master Gardeners of Yakima County will present two experts who will share the challenges and successes that some of our favorite insects have in our gardens.
Following them you will have the rare opportunity to enjoy the work of a world-renowned garden architect and plantsman as we follow him through “Five Seasons, the Gardens of Piet Oudolf.”
Come enjoy the comfort of the modern auditorium at Pacific NW University to watch and hear what they have to say. Visit with an assortment of exhibitors who share in your love of gardening year-round. Enjoy lunch, and get a chance to take home lovely gifts from local artisans.
