Well, Im not sure anyone reads the stuff here in the Rancho forum; although I live Folsom and the event certainly was open to anyne regardless of where he or she resides, I thought I "should" put this here as the event itself was in Rancho.

ANYWAY, the event was a success! Great turnout! And, personally, I came home with a great variety of tomoto, pepper, cuke, summer squash, and herb seedlings for planting in my raised beds! The beds are prepped and ready to go for when the weather cools again mid-week -- don't want to risk frying my little seedlings by planting them during this heat wave.

Anyone else into organic gardening in Folsom or surrounding areas? We seem to be having an influx of whiteflies this year. Ugh.
