Lexington Field & Garden Club presents

“Preparing the Soil for Gardening” with Gretel Anspach

Wednesday, March 12, 2025

6:30 PM Refreshments, 7 PM meeting

and a recently retired systems engineer for Raytheon.

She established and maintained a 20,000 square for food production garden that provides produce to the Marlboro and Maynard Food Pantries.

Her primary interest and focus is the science behind horticulture.

Gretel will speak on how the quality and makeup of the soil has a huge influence on how well plants will do.

Unlike sunlight, air and water (the other 3 requirements) soil quality cannot be determined by simply looking or even by looking at the plants.

She will cover structure, compaction fertility and pH and talk about how these qualities can be modified to create a more successful garden.

This event is Free!

Street parking is available along Mass Ave and Follen Rd.

Carpooling might be advisable.
