The Wyoming climate presents a number of challenges to those who grow. Gardening is much easier when you learn to work with Mother Nature in this semi-arid zone.

Getting the most out of your labors is the subject of today’s lecture With Patti O’Neal, a Research Associate with Colorado State University Extension and coordinates the Jefferson County Master Gardener Program
