HURON — The Huron Area Master Gardeners gear up for the season with its “Leap into Spring” festival from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday at the Women’s Building on the South Dakota State Fairgrounds.
“Winter here gets a little long, its nice to have something to remind us that spring is coming and to get back into digging in the soil and planting,” said Joanne Groves Master Gardener and organizer.
Master Gardeners will each have a table set up to present a different topic to the public which will include dividing daylilies and other perennials, orchids, native grasses, preserving garden produce, how to win a purple ribbon for 4-H kids and much more.
“Dividing daylilies and other perennials is quite a skill people will get to learn,” Groves explained. “Our Master Gardener that does the All About Birds topic is an excellent photographer, her photographs are very beautiful of the birds. Native grasses will be using native plants for gardens, not just grasses as well as information about healthy soil.”
