- Back by popular demand, the Black Swamp Conservancy is offering two gardening workshops in Perrysburg. The first workshop, “Late Summer and Fall in the Garden,” will be held on August 19 and will cover topics such as how to harvest and preserve summer produce, how to prepare your garden for fall, and what to plant in the fall. The second workshop, “What is a Forest Garden and is it for You?,” will be held on September 30 and will explore the concept of forest gardening, which is a low-maintenance way to grow food and other plants. Both workshops will be led by master gardener Vicki Gallagher.
