Improving Your Soil
Location
- San Antonio Botanical Garden
- 555 Funston Place, San Antonio, TX
Wednesday, January 11 | 10 a.m. – 12 p.m.
Gardening in Bexar County often means identifying, understanding, amending, and protecting our soil that can range from beach sand to a thick “gumbo” clay soil. Poor soil can be amended to maximizes water usage while minimizing fertilizer & pesticide usage. However, even the richest soil needs protection from the brutal sun, oppressive heat, and wind. Join Master Gardener Bill Swantner as he explores these soils, various soil amendments, and ways to keep a stable environment in the soil. Master Gardeners will be available at the end of the workshop to answer gardening questions. Sponsored by San Antonio Water System.
Fee: Free. Registration deadline is January 10 at 10 a.m. WaterSaver Rewards Eligible.
Instructor: Bill Swantner, Bexar County Master Gardener
