<p data-pm-slice="1 1 []">In this class, Anchorage entomologist Alex Wenninger with the UAF Cooperative Extension Service will discuss how to create a thriving community of nectar-rich native plants.

Dress warmly, as May weather can be unpredictable. Bring your lunch and gardening gloves. All other materials will be provided. Class length may vary, depending on conditions.

Delta Junction: Build a No-Till No-Dig Lasagna Garden
Do you want a low-maintenance, easy-to-develop, no-till garden? Learn how to build a no-till lasagna garden in this hands-on workshop in Delta Junction.
Lasagna gardening is a tried-and-true method for creating a productive garden space on untilled land. Sometimes called a deep mulch garden or sheet composting, it is an excellent way to create a raised bed for perennials or vegetables with or without a box around the edges. This method not only maintains nutrients but improves the soil over time — all without having to clear, dig or weed out that first layer of soil.

Webinar: Selecting Lilacs for Your Yard
Join horticulturist Julie Riley for a presentation highlighting lilacs in Southcentral Alaska and learn which lilacs are best suited for your yard. Julie's talk will also include suggestions on why your lilac doesn't bloom and a few tips on pruning.
The adage, "right plant for the right place," holds true when it comes to planting lilacs. Do you want a plant that will stay short, or one that you can see blooming out of your second-story window? Do you want the deepest purple flower color or burgundy fall foliage?
Riley was a horticulture agent with the University of Alaska Fairbanks Cooperative Extension Service for over 35 years. During this time, she worked with home gardeners, community gardeners and the commercial horticulture industry in both Anchorage and Fairbanks. In 2019, she taught a course on lilacs and has been trying to figure out how to identify lilac species/cultivars based on flower type, leaf shape, form and suckering habit. If you have a beautiful lilac in your front yard, you might…
