Garden Talk Helps Create Better Neighbors


Earlier this summer, a first time home owner in Arlington attempted some weed abatement and accidentally killed off his lawn - and his neighbor's lawn. Neither he nor the neighbor were pleased.... 

So he attended the Master Gardner's Fall Lawn Care program at Central Library this past Saturday. Now armed with new lawn care knowledge, plus several lawn care books from the library collection, he is hoping to make a fresh start on the lawns this fall.

You can find out more about the Garden Talk programs here on our News Blog, or by checking the postings on the news board in the Central Library vegetable garden.
