Master Gardeners, February 23

The Master Gardeners are back at The Green Tent!

And they're bringing a couple of flats filled with seedlings planted just for Mar Vista Farmers Market visitors. 

They’ll be giving away Snow Peas (these are the flatter ones that you eat pods and all), Sugar Snap Peas (the chunkier super sweet edible pods with peas), Bloomsdale Spinach (one of the best!), green salad bowl lettuce, mesclun mix greens and some Siberian kale that’s just starting to show its first “true leaves”.

As always, they’ll have seeds on hand to give away, too. 

They really need your plastic “six-packs” so they can continue planting seeds for the Green Tent each month.

Bring your gardening questions!
