Here’s Some Local Online Resources to Help You
During this time of Staying Home, Staying Healthy, the posting last week from the Master Gardeners had a lot of good advice on how to get started gardening at home. This week’s posting from the Food Action Team provides local online resources to help you garden while staying home.
First is the booklet from our Team that has loads of information about local sources for your garden. If you don’t already have a copy of it, you can access it online. The link is

Second are three nurseries around Corvallis: Garland Nursery 5460 NE Hwy. 20 – 541-753-6601
