UW Park County Extension Outreach Garden

The educational garden allows horticulturists, nutritionists, and others to make presentations and teach workshops on growing vegetables, fruits, herbs, and flowers, including pollinator species. The plan is to offer twice-monthly classes throughout the growing season on a variety of gardening-related topics (there could be occasional fees to help cover materials). A portion of the garden is designed to allow people with disabilities to fully participate in workshops and presentations; among the garden features are planting tables with wheelchair accessibility.
