• Learn to recognize common plant diseases, especially on tomatoes and cucumbers.
• See the beautiful fruit the tomato and cucumber plants can produce even when pests are present.
• Taste delicious tomatoes and cucumbers grown in the garden.
• Enjoy dinner and activities for children.
• Bring home seeds of disease-resistant tomatoes and cucumbers for next year and perennial native flowers you can plant this fall.

• The whole family! We’ll have kid-friendly activities.
• A water bottle, bug repellent, and a chair.

Dinner will be provided.
