An intensive, two-day vegetable breeding workshop will take place on June 17 and 24 from 9 a.m. to noon at North Star Orchard. The workshop, geared toward the more experienced gardener, will be led by NSO Garden Manager Kevin Booth and NSO Greenhouse Manager Lena Dati. During the course, attendees will learn the importance of vegetable breeding and everything necessary to start breeding their own vegetable varieties in their home gardens, which is a step beyond simply saving seeds. Workshop topics will include plant genetics, selection, and instruction into breeding processes used at NSO. See more here.
