SUMMARY:Horticulture Corner: Mushrooms
DESCRIPTION:Tim Armstrong of Eat Your Yard Jax discusses how you can raise mushrooms at home. Armstrong has studied the varieties that grow best in Northeast Florida and shares his extensive experience gained from training programs around the country. Learn how to grow varieties like shiitake and oyster mushrooms and the seasons when they grow best. \nEat Your Yard Jax is a family-run farm specializing in edible landscape and garden plants and practicing organic principles and sustainable agriculture. The farm uses composting\, vermiculture\, rainwater reclamation\, aquaponics\, chicken production for a manure source\, and mushroom production from waste wood reclamation as part of its sustainable practices. \nArmstrong’s family has lived in North Florida since Florida became a state. They operated a trading post\, post office\, and steamboat stop on the Apalachicola River for almost 100 years. Armstrong grew up on Jacksonville’s westside and worked in several nurseries as a young man. He returned to the nursery business in 2007. After he met the folks at the Beaches Green Market\, he expanded the edible component of his business. He enjoyed sharing the market experience with his children and hearing stories of urban agriculture success—and failure—from customers. After volunteering at the North Florida School of Special Education’s gardens\, Armstrong studied at Growing Power in Milwaukee\, Wisconsin\, with Will Allen. The training helped Berry Good Farms to grow out of NFSSE’s small garden into the microbusiness training model it is today. \nThis program will be offered in-person at the Garden Club and simultaneously on Zoom. Seating at the Garden Club is limited\, so register today. COVID-19 health and safety guidelines will be practiced during this event.

SUMMARY:Centennial Garden Car Wash
DESCRIPTION:Get a great car wash and support the Centennial Garden at Historic Willow Branch Park. Drive up to the parking lot behind the Garden Club at 1005 Riverside Avenue. Proceeds from this donation-based car wash will help fund a lush garden featuring native plantings in addition to public art and reforestation. \nThere is plenty of room to be socially distant while supporting a great cause. \nRichard Ceriello\, president of the AIDS Memorial Project of Northeast Florida\, has been working to improve the park for several years. His organization has planted trees in the park to commemorate those who died of HIV/AIDS. \nHe and Theresa Parlato formed the Plant Parenthood Facebook group with a focus on developing and celebrating gardening arts among members of the Jacksonville LGBTQ community. They’ve been working with landscape architect Scott Dowman and D. Scott Fraser of Design Development Architecture on the long-term plans for Willow Branch Park. \nRegister today for the #GardenClubJax virtual program A Garden to Remember on July 14 to learn more about the Centennial Garden.

SUMMARY:A Different Kind of Landscaping
DESCRIPTION:People approach landscaping in many different ways depending on their circumstances. In the case of Shawana Brooks\, development director at Jacksonville Arts & Music School\, and visual artist Roosevelt Watson III\, they came up with an ingenious way to dress up their yard and communicate with neighbors and the public-at-large. As renters\, they wanted something flexible that also spoke to their artistic and creative sensibilities. Also\, their house is situated one block from a Superfund site where hazardous waste contaminated the area\, making growing their own food risky for their family’s health. \nTogether\, they created the 6 Ft. Away Gallery\, a pop-up public art space created by Brooks in response to the pandemic and the lack of opportunities for African-American artists. The gallery features Watson’s “Waymaker” series honoring the legacy of local and national contributions of lesser-known African-Americans and their allies. \nRegister today for the program at 6 p.m. Tuesday\, June 30.
