Did you know cucumbers, zucchini and squash are all members of the gourd family? Lac La Biche County's Environmental Services team is hosting a free Gardening 101 workshop on Thursday, April 30 on how to grow these garden favourites and prepare your soil for the best results.

Participants will get hands-on experience and receive supplies to start seeds of their choice, including gourds and sunflowers to take home. Please register in advance to ensure enough materials are available, by calling 780-623-6804 or emailing green@laclabichecounty.com.
