Drop by and meet the gardeners for the Kitchen and Children’s gardens, Carola Di Poi and Erik Stromvall, who will share quick tips and practical gardening techniques for growing fruits and vegetables at home.

  • Pollinators, Predators, Pests: Join Huntington gardeners for a deep dive into cultivating a healthy relationship with the critters in your garden.
  • Garden Tours: See what fruits and vegetables are in season. Meet in the Kitchen Garden for an informal, volunteer-led tour of the planting beds.
