Vermont Edition invites you to be a part of a live studio audience for their annual spring gardening show. Host Mikaela Lefrak will interview local gardening expert Charlie Nardozzi. He will share tips for starting the growing season strong, from caring for early bloomers to preparing your beds for wet weather. And bring your spring gardening questions for a chance to ask Charlie!
Charlie Nardozzi is a gardening consultant, speaker, and TV personality and host of All Things Gardening on Vermont Public.
After Vermont Edition, Zoe McDonald, producer of our Sprouted newsletter, will host a seed swap. You’re invited to bring your own locally saved or packaged seeds. Please make sure they are labeled with the type and date harvested. Most seeds will remain viable for 2-4 years if kept in a cool, dry place, out of the light. Some seeds, like onions and leeks, may only be good for one year. We’ll provide envelopes to bring your seeds home with you. You do not need to bring seeds to participate in the swap.
Doors open: 11:30 a.m.
Audience must be seated by: 11:50 a.m.
Live Broadcast: 12:00 - 1:00 p.m.
