The University of Vermont Extension Master Gardener
State Conference
Gardening for Resilience: Feeding our Soil, Seeds, Habitats and Communities
In this challenging year, Vermont needs resilient gardeners more than ever. Resilient gardeners are empowered people who grow food, create beautiful and therapeutic places, and support resilient ecosystems. Resilient gardeners are vital to the web of interdependence that helps sustain the Vermont way of life. Not everyone can be a farmer or an environmental scientist, but anyone can become a resilient gardener!!
