Wondering about those white powdery spots on your squash leaves? Don’t know when to harvest your potatoes? Want red, not green tomatoes this year?

Home gardeners can get timely advice from local experts about vegetable and berry gardening from noon-1 p.m. Friday, Aug. 14, at the Fifth Street Community Garden, 328 E. Fifth St., Port Angeles. The event is part of Lunch in the Garden, an educational series sponsored by WSU Clallam County Master Gardeners on the second Friday of each month through September.

Each month local Master Gardeners lead a fast-paced, one-hour walk through the community garden to show home gardeners what needs to be done in vegetable gardens and berry patches at that time and what problems are likely to appear.

During these walks, Master Gardeners also will answer questions from local gardeners.

This month veteran Master Gardeners Bob Cain, Laurel Moulton, Audreen Williams and Jeanette Stehr-Green will talk about harvesting potatoes, getting tomatoes to ripen, cover crops, planting a fall garden and more.

Lunch in the Garden walks are free and open to the public. The walks are ideal for persons starting a vegetable garden for the first time and gardeners who are new to the Pacific Northwest but also are beneficial to the more experienced gardener.

The garden includes over 50 individuals plots that are each 9 feet by 12 feet.
