PORT ANGELES — Clallam County Master Gardener Francoise Pearlman will talk about how to select, organize and use a greenhouse while avoiding some of the pitfalls at a lecture at noon Thursday, Aug. 8.
Pearlman will speak in the county commissioners meeting room of the Clallam County Courthouse, 223 E Fourth St., Port Angeles.
The presentation is part of the “Green Thumb Garden Tips” brown bag series sponsored by the Washington State University Clallam County Master Gardeners on the second and fourth Thursday of every month in Port Angeles.
Pearlman said that greenhouse growing in the local climate is appealing, but making the transition from growing plants outdoors to growing in the greenhouse requires different practices.
She will provide tips about growing indoors versus outdoors, greenhouse options and components, organizing a green house, the rhythm of the seasons and challenges and benefits.
Attendees may bring a lunch. The presentations are free and open to the public, but donations to help offset copying costs for handouts are accepted.
