Snow - 1; Gardens - 0

It's hard to tell when you look out the window today, but the Berkshires' gardening season is nearly here. Now, I love gardens as much as anyone, but just don't have the time (or make the priority) to do all the work needed to produce great flowers and vegetables, or keep my shrubs pruned and lawn trimmed. How about you? Do you have some tips and tricks to share?

For those of us who want to have nice gardens without as much work, the library has invited gardening book author and editor Liz Stell to share her experience with us next Tuesday, April 10 at 6:30. Liz has fabulous gardens at her Lanesborough home, and I've always wondered how she manages to produce such great results while being a very busy editor and musician. I'm going to be there to find out, and hope you will too.

And keep your tips and tricks coming!

I've promoted this event on my blog and hope to see a good crowd there. As a new-to-the-area blogger and gardener, I wouldn't miss it. Her book "Secrets to Great Soil" is thorough and surprisingly interesting.
