A four-part lawn and garden series presented by the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service will start Aug. 30 in Georgetown.
Lawn and Garden 201 will run from 6-8 p.m. each Tuesday through Sept. 20 at the AgriLife Extension office in Williamson County, 100 Wilco Way.
The cost is $15 per session or $45 for the full series. Advance registration is required at https://tx.ag/Garden201, said Kate Whitney, AgriLife Extension horticulture agent, Williamson County.
“This is a follow-up to the spring session I did, Lawn and Garden 101, although that is not a prerequisite to attend,” Whitney said.
“If you are new to Central Texas and interested in gardening, or just want to learn more about how to take care of your lawn and garden, this is a fantastic informational series,” she said.
