The next meeting is today, Oct. 20, at the Falcon Fire Station at 8:30 a.m. Larry Stebbins will present “Successful Vegetable Gardening in the Pikes Peak Region.” Stebbins will discuss how to prepare your soil in the fall for the best vegetables the following year; how to protect your plants from the wind, hail and that surprise cold snap; tips on how to get early cukes, tomatoes and peppers; how to control insects, organically and safely; how to grow the largest onions, garlic and leeks; and how to compost to create crumbly black soil.
