Plant Sale 2023 — Theresa Rooney of WCCO Smart Garden available to answer questions

Our own Theresa Rooney, Hennepin County Master Gardener for 23 years, will be on deck to answer your gardening questions at the Annual HCMG Plant Sale on May 20, 2023 at the Hopkins Pavilion.

You can hear Theresa on AM830 WCCO’s Smart Garden on Saturdays 8 – 9am about once a month. She has been sharing ideas, answering questions and giving gardening advice for the last 11 years. This show brings listeners the latest information on lawn and garden care.

Theresa is a lifelong gardener. She has a small “turf-free” yard/habitat in south Minneapolis where she practices permaculture, sustainable and regenerative gardening methods. Her yard is a National Wildlife Certified Habitat that she uses as her practice zone. She grows veggies, fruit, herbs and flowers and ornamental grasses.

She is the author of “The Guide to Humane Critter Control: Natural, Nontoxic Pest Solutions to Protect Your Yard and Garden”.

Theresa’s message to all of the gardeners out there:

I love to answer questions and talk all things gardening (yes, even turf), so please make my day and come and see me and ask questions or just talk gardening at the HCMG Plant sale on Saturday, May 20, 2023.

I can’t wait to meet you.
