SUMMARY:July Gardening Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Mathews Gardening Group \nCome join us at the next Monthly Meeting! \nMeeting Notice \nWhen: Wednesday\, July 24\, 2024\, 10:00 AM – 11:15 AM \nWhere: Mathews County Virginia Cooperative Extension (VCE) Main Office: (804) 725-7196 10494 Buckley Hall Road Suite B\, Mathews\, VA 23109 \nSpeaker & Topic: Pamela Darney\, Master Gardener and Master Naturalist  \nSeed Saving Strategies: When & How to Start! \nBONUS: SEED SWAP – BRING YOUR SEEDS TO EXCHANGE WITH OTHERS \nAbout Seed Saving: The practical understanding and value of saving seeds. Which seeds can be saved – how and when to do it? Which seeds are easier to save? What is scarification and stratification? Pamela will discuss her successes and failures in saving seeds and asks that you share your seed saving history with the group too. Why is seed saving so important? Saving seeds allows you to select for particular characteristics you might like to cultivate by selecting fruits or plants to harvest with those same traits. You can choose seeds with the best tasting\, largest\, earliest ripening fruits to save that would ensure these same qualities in the next generation. And it can save you money! \nAbout Pamela Darney: \nBrief Bio \nPamela is a Master Gardener\, class of 2022\, and then completed the Master Naturalist course in August of 2023 and has been a constant friend to the Mathews Gardening Group.  She is also a rookie Oyster Gardener – growing both the diploid and triploid varieties in the York River.  She has been keeping bees since 2020 and is fascinated by the hive mentality\, the life cycle of the honeybee (different for the queen\, worker\, and drone)\, and their dedication to the caring of the Queen.  \nPamela recently retired from full time work and has a bachelor’s degree in Architecture and an MBA with a concentration in Finance. She is focusing on herbs\, dahlias\, and native plants – all which support providing food for the bees. \nStay afterwards for continued Q&A with the speaker. \nParking Notice – Members with mobility challenges please park near the Extension office entry beyond the lots halfway point. For others\, there is ample parking at the nearby Chesapeake Bank on the right of the building and parking at the lot to the left of the building. Thank you.
