Have you
heard of IPM? It’s not Icky Pests Murdering vegetables, but rather Integrated
Pest Management, and it’s a great way to think about dealing with the bugs or
diseases that might come after your veggies this season.
We’ll do a
garden walk rain or shine and see what problems we can uncover in our teaching
garden (hopefully not too many!), and then we will talk about:
- The basics of pests and disease—what attracts them and
what makes some plants so much more delicious to them.
- Tools to prevent issues from getting started in your
garden.
- Tools and tips to identify pests and diseases.
- What problems tend to arise at each part of the season,
and what this year’s current and upcoming issues are likely to be.
- And what you can do about pests when you find and identify
them!
- There will be plenty of time to troubleshoot your pest and
pathogen issues (so feel free to bring questions and pictures, but please
don’t bring your pests!).
