SUMMARY:Gather & Grow Tour: Composting & More in Sidney\, Maine
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our first Gather & Grow tour of the season: taking place at a residential garden featuring three different composting practices in Sidney\, Maine! In this year’s Gather & Grow series\, garden tour hosts will share information about their gardening practices in general\, and through the lens of climate change adaptation. About the gardens: Tom Vigue and Eileen Fingerman have been growing on their plot of land — dubbed “Kiwi Hill Farm\,” after the first fruit they planted there — since the early 1990’s. Their vegetable gardens span about 1/4 acre and consist of 21 different beds\, which are managed on a 7-year crop rotation plan and with low-till practices. They have also cultivated many perennial plants\, including a home orchard\, which features various fruit trees\, vines\, and shrubs. Composting has been key to their approach to sustainable and successful gardening. Tom manages three different composting systems: vermicompost bins\, larger compost piles\, and leaf mold piles. Gain some garden inspiration on this tour\, while learning a bit about composting and other climate-smart gardening practices. Questions?
