Everything you ever wanted to know about growing herbs and maintaining a flourishing herb garden. Have you ever wondered what to do with all your herbs once you grew them? You can learn that as well at our next general meeting and presentation on Tuesday. April 12th at 7 pm on Zoom. Our speaker is Toni Westerfield Farmer--Toni Farmer is a professor at Rowan University in the school of Earth and Environmental Science. She holds a Master of Environmental Sustainability from the University of Pennsylvania and is almost finished with her Master Gardener certification. She has been a passionate backyard gardener for almost 30 years and if you can grow it in South Jersey soil, she has grown it! She runs Toni Farmer’s Garden, a website and social media-based business that teaches citizens to grow their own food organically, sustainably, and abundantly. Toni is also a supporter and educator for school gardens. In 2012 she built a city-wide public school garden program in Moorestown, NJ and also helps run or consults with school gardens around the country. Toni speaks frequently to garden and horticulture clubs and in the summer, she provides the garden video content for SJ Magazine, winning “best of” for 2021. From 2012 - 2016 she was the Garden Coordinator for Live Civilly, a South Jersey non-profit. She has also served as a member of the Sustainable Moorestown Committee. Her hope is to teach as many people as possible how to grow their own food: in community gardens, schoolyards, and backyards. Climate change is an increasing threat to agriculture and our food supply. Learning to grow food is a critical tool for healthy food access.
