The SouthCoast Six Libraries welcome John Root, who will present "Edible Perennials in Gardening and Landscaping." 

His power point presentation will feature the variety of trees, shrubs, vines, canes, and herbaceous perennials that can be grown in New England for bountiful harvests of fruits, nuts, and vegetables.

Participants will learn how to establish and care for these plants using organic methods of cultivation. Nutritional and medicinal benefits of the plants are discussed as well. Questions and comments are welcome throughout the presentation, and handouts with a list of edible perennial plant species, resources for further study, and recommended plant nurseries are distributed at the conclusion of the program.

This program is free, open to everyone, and supported through a grant from the Somerset Cultural Council. Register here and a secure Zoom link will be sent to your email before the presentation.
