Last month, the club met at the home of Roger and Linda Hurd, to view, and learn about, gardening in raised beds. Roger and Linda began using raised beds when they built their home, on Pioneer Trail, in 1976, and found out that that their land was mainly clay.
After Roger gave the group details and advantages (and a few disadvantages), from his many years of gardening in raised beds, the group toured through his vast and bountiful beds. Several lucky club members took home some plump zucchinis.
