April is “Earth Month”, and one way to celebrate is to get your garden started. Edward C. Smith, author of The Vegetable Gardener's Bible and several other best-selling gardening books, will speak at the Baldwin Library in Wells River on Friday, April 8 at 6:30 pm. For more than 30 years Smith and his wife, Sylvia, have lived off the grid in Cabot, Vermont, in a house they built on land they cleared by hand. Together, the grow more than 100 varieties of vegetables, fruits, and herbs in their 2,000 square feet of gardens and containers. Copies of Smith's books will be available to purchase or borrow. This event is hosted by the Vegetable Gardeners Group which meets monthly at the library. Refreshments will be served.
