  Gardening/Landscaping classes? New to the area (in my 30s, from New England) and I have no idea what all these plants growing are! Cacti and succulents? Goatheads? Just learning about so much. I'm struggling to find desert gardening or landscaping classes in the ABQ/Santa Fe area. Does anyone know of COVID-safe outdoor classes for absolute southwest beginners? (Also looking for plants and cuttings in group.) Cheers!

  There’s some great information here: https://aces.nmsu.edu/county/bernalillo/yardgarden/index.html and https://www.abqmastergardeners.org/. The master gardeners also put out a book you can get at the library called “Down to Earth” What types of plants are you looking for? The public library also has an awesome seed library where you can get up to 30 packets a year of veggies, herbs and flowers. Welcome to Albuquerque. 😊 make sure to invest in rain barrels and humidifiers - you’ll need them.

  Eve E. asked:

  I have a couple gardener's questions!! 1) Where can I buy pig poop locally? 2) Where can I buy chicken poop locally? 3) Can anyone recommend a landscaper/gardener who specializes in organic methods? 4) Can anyone recommend a landscaper who does garden walkways and paths? I'm not in a hurry for answers' but I'd like to know for future reference :)
