GAINESVILLE - The Hall County Library System and Hall County Extension Service and the Master Gardeners in the county are expanding the Lunch and Learn Gardening Series which enters its third year next month.
The group will meet each Wednesday for two months, starting March 16th, at either the library system's main branch downtown or the Blackshear Place branch or both.
The Blackshear Place program is new this year, to serve that heavily populated and growing area, according to Adrian Mixson, associate director of the library system.
Mixson says each program will last from 12n-1pm and is designed for working people as well as those at home. Participants are encouraged to bring their lunch and eat it while they learn.
