Ask a Master Gardener at the Market - Every Market you have the opportunity to solve a garden problem with the help of the Northern Neck Master Gardeners - here are Priscilla Wellford, Martha Franks, Darlene Nelson and Diane Hagler (not shown Diane Kean). The Northern Neck Master Gardeners’ booth provides research-based answers to all of your gardening questions each month.. In September they will have information on preparing your lawn for next year by applying the correct ...amount of fertilizer this fall. The first step to a beautiful lawn is to have a soil test done. The Master Gardeners have soil test kits available to tell you how to determine the number of tests you need, where to send the kit and how to read the information you will receive back from Virginia Tech’s Soil Test Lab. For everyone with a garden, now is the time to prepare your garden for the winter. What needs to be cut down and what needs to be left until spring are common questions we will be happy to answer. Fall is the perfect time to transplant and divide perennials so you may want to find out what perennials are recommended for this area and what plants are “Natives”.
