Kick off the gardening season by joining the Penn State Extension Master Gardeners of York County for GardenWise, a one-day garden school on March 10 at the Central York Middle School, 1950 N. Hills Road in York from 7:30 to 4:00.

GardenWise will share research-based information about sustainable gardening and environmental stewardship.

Participants will learn how to use native plant species in garden designs from John Magee.

Interested in vegetables? Jon Traunfeld will give you information to manage the most common pests, and share ideas on small space gardening.

Thinking about transitioning to more native plants or starting a rain garden? Ann English shares her years of experience.
