Lunch ’n’ Learn
to cover gardening

Anyone tired of snow, ice, and cold air can shift their attention next Wednesday to sun and gardening.

Marion City Library will offer gardening tips for vegetables and flowers from noon to 1 p.m. Feb. 12. Topics will include site selection, seed starting, compost, and fertilizing.

Bret Toews of Chisholm Trail Extension District will be the featured presenter. The library also will begin a seed giveaway program. Free vegetable, flower, and herb seeds will be available for those attending, librarian Janet Marler said. Remaining seeds will be available to others free during regular library hours.

Reservations are required by Monday. Lunch will cost $5. Reservations are being accepted at (620) 382-2442.
