To paraphrase an old McDonald’s tagline, “Did someone say edibles?” Lest anyone doubt that edibles are going to be THE hot seller at garden centers this year, consider this. We received word from Patty Howe that Al’s Garden Center of Sherwood has already filled up “Getting Down in the Dirt,” an upcoming seminar on vegetable gardening featuring none other than Jack Bigej (pictured with son Mark). The thing of it is, it’s not even happening until April 25. That’s more than a month away. It just goes to show that customers are, well, hungry (pardon the pun) for knowledge about edibles this year.
