From an unseasonably warm winter to the premature blooms of an early spring, Colorado’s wacky weather has left Denver gardeners stumped. But fear not – our resident gardening expert Ann Marie Awad is here! They sit down with host Bree Davies to answer City Cast Denver listeners and readers’ burning questions about cultivating veggies during a drought, the best chemical-free ways to ward off grasshoppers and squirrels, and why planting a tree right now might be the best thing you can do for your garden in the years to come. Bree and Ann Marie discussed a few great resources, including the City’s “Be a Smart Ash” tree replacement program, The Park People’s Denver Digs Trees program, and the water permits available for new saplings. They also discussed Denver’s drought watering schedule, how to capture “grey water,” and the Denver Botanic Gardens and CSU Extension’s Master Gardener support services.
