A landscaping workshop put on by University of Minnesota Extension Master Gardeners is planned from 8 a.m. to noon Saturday at Woodbury City Hall, 8301 Valley Creek Road.
The workshop is free, and coffee and doughnuts will be available.
Three 45-minute presentations will be given:
— “The Importance and Secrets of Pollination,” about choosing plants to attract bees and other pollinators.
— “Ornamental Grasses,” about choosing grasses to create attractive landscapes for all seasons.
— “Water Quality and Rain Gardens,” about beautifying yards and retaining runoff from rain and snow.
Master Gardeners are university-trained volunteers who teach the public about gardening. For information, visit mastergardenersinwashingtonco.org or Master Gardeners in Washington County on Facebook, or email wcmg@umn.edu.
