CSU Extension will host a free, online vegetable gardening course as part of its Grow & Give initiative May 1 through 31.

The Grow & Give initiative is a modern victory garden project designed for citizens to grow vegetable gardens and plant extra to share with local food banks and community members in need.

The course is part of CSU Extension’s online Certified Gardener Program and will teach gardeners everything needed to know about planning a vegetable garden, including planting times, layout design, soil preparation and fertilization, routine care, frost protection tips and more.
