This Week In the Garden
Cleaning Out Garden Beds

This week Haywood County Extension Director Walter Battle talks about cleaning out the garden getting it ready for planting. Old plants that do not have disease problems like cabbage or cauliflower can be composted. Plants that have disease problems or blights like tomatoes should be thrown away to help reduce the disease in your garden this year.  It is best to clean up your garden in the fall.
