For over 100 years, LIHREC has been the setting for scientific research that supports farmers and home growers alike. With a focus on both food and horticultural crops, the staff have identified pests and diseases as well as trialed new, hardier plants with great success. Please join Dr. Mark Bridgen, Professor of Horticulture, for a walking tour of the greenhouses and fields to learn more about the work that is being done behind the scenes that helps ensure a successful growing season for all. You’ll visit the display gardens featuring an herb garden, native plant garden, a pollinator garden, a cottage garden, and enjoy the dahlia garden in peak bloom. Refreshments will be provided.
$5/ person suggested donation. Space is limited, reservations required. Heavy rain cancels.
