Integrated Pest Management
2023-06-24 14:00 - 15:00 UTC | Heber-Overgaard Fire District, 2061 Lumber2061 Lumber Valley Rd,, Overgaard, 85933, United States
The lovely rains and wet winter can potentially bring many garden pests out this summer. Speaker Michele McGuiness will walk you through Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategies for garden pest management for our Arizona vegetable gardens.
She will talk about how to balance the ecosystem that is your garden so good bugs thrive, and you create conditions that are unfavorable for those pests that would stop you from having an abundant harvest.
Class is free to garden members and Friends of the Garden. $5 for non-members.

Work Project Day!
2023-06-24 09:00 - 11:00, 2023-06-17 09:00 - 11:00
Come help with this work project! Volunteers welcome. We will add hardware cloth to the bottom of the fencing (keeping those critters out). We will also be sealing the outsides of the beds and leveling behind the second rows of beds. So, something for everyone! Bring a rake if you can, wear close-toed shoes, wear sunscreen, and bring some water.

When to amend your bed + water before the irrigation class?

Until we are sure to have our last freeze, the water will be on at the Garden on Saturdays from 9AM – 4 PM so you can come water + amend your beds during that time.
If there are any days during the week that our team will be there working on projects, we will send an email to let you know, and you can come amend and water your garden beds.
This is to ensure that the water is properly drained + maintained until we are sure of the last freeze. If it freezes with water in the pipe, then the pipes will break.
