gardening

Northlanders love to watch the weather - especially those that garden!  One of the tell-tale signs of winter starting (or ending) is the first and last frost date.

One of summer's greatest treats is the abundance of fresh fruits and vegetables.  Perhaps no fruit is more revered than the strawberry - which makes its appearance in a wide variety of summertime desserts, salads, and - just fresh in a bowl.

Gardening can do wonderful things for your health. Even if you only have enough space to put plants in a few pots on a patio, a little bit of gardening can go a long way.

It's probably not a new idea, but it surely seems novel in the 2010's.  The Duluth Public Library has announced a new seed lending program - to go along with the other materials that you can check out.
