WABI covers Rogers Farm Field Day
WABI (Channel 5) reported on a Field Day hosted by Master Gardener Volunteers at the University of Maine’s Rogers Farm in Old Town. Participants enjoyed workshops, demonstrations, homemade food and guest speakers, WABI reported. Organizers said the event is a great opportunity for people to get gardening advice from area experts. “This is a great time of year to showcase the garden in its prime,” said Kate Garland, a horticultural professional with UMaine Cooperative Extension. “The gardeners here — the Master Garden Volunteers — have volunteered countless hours to cultivate this outdoor classroom, and so we want folks to come in and celebrate the end of the season and the beauty of the season, and celebrate the great harvests that are happening, and learn as much as they can.”
