Master Gardener Caty Poole of Valley Community Gardens and 2 Gardeners Vincent Dion and Kevin Gallagher swapping best practices

My first guest is someone who's been here before, His name is Vincent Dion. Vincent is a well known Connecticut artist and a serious gardener and Bee keeper. When he drops by it's because he and I are going to talk gardening.  I'm met Vincent through my colleague and fellow Gardener Joseph Celli. We have never met in person, but have become fast friends remotely because we are kindred spirits.    We're talk spring prep in the garden.  What I'm doing and what he's doing in our respective gardens. Listening to our chat may help you with a few ideas and maybe better ways to garden. .My next guest is Caty Poole of Valley Community Gardens  who after more than two decades in the life sciences industry, Caty followed her passion for equitable food access to Massaro Community Farm in Woodbridge Ct.  where she spent 11 years leading and growing food and farming programs. Now a Master Beekeeper,  she has a  Master’s level certificate from The Institute of Sustainable Nutrition. She focuses her energy on teaching cooking and nutrition courses at Valley Community Gardens, a collective of public gardens serving the Lower Naugatuck Valley in Connecticut, focusing on sustainable, local food production.
