Family, Home & Garden Education Center Open House January 18 & 19
Join us for fun activities, refreshments, and a tour of the UNH Cooperative
Extension Family, Home & Garden Education Center Education Center.
Children will enjoy our interactive Insect Safari! and venture into the underground environment beneath their feet. Learn about Master Gardener training, exciting classes, educational activities and events
Come either January 18 between 2:00 and 4:30 p.m. or January 19 from 9:00-4:30 p.m. The Center is located at 200 Bedford St., Mill #3.
The Family, Home & Garden Education Center operates a toll-free Info Line, 1-877-EXT-GROW (1-877-398-4769) to answer general household, garden, and family questions. Staffed by trained and well-supported Master Gardener volunteers, the line is open Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., and on Wednesday nights from 5:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. You can also email your questions.
The Center also maintains a lively web page which features a wide variety of educational resources. Check out a few of the many NH Outside columns written by Extension natural resources volunteers—people sharing their love of the natural world with their neighbors. In case you missed UNH Margaret Hagen’s weekly “Grow It Green” segment on WMUR, TV, we’ve also begun posting the written handouts.
You can also ask about the availability of a Master Gardener to conduct an educational program community projects in your town or neighborhood.
