Somerville Garden Club May Meeting: Urban Gardening
Gretel Anspach, a Lifetime Master Gardener and frequent speaker, will give a talk about urban gardening on Wednesday, May 11.

Gretel Anspach, member of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society’s Board of Trustees, will give a talk about urban gardening. She will cover alternatives to the standard sources for light, water, and nutrients that plants need for people who don’t have much space, or perhaps no yards at all. Her talk will also touch on container gardening and hydroponics.

Gretel Anspach is a Lifetime Master Gardener, the education coordinator for the Massachusetts Master Gardener Association (MMGA), a Trustee of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society, and a recently-retired systems engineer. She has served as the President and as the Certification Coordinator for the MMGA. She is a frequent speaker for the MMGA Speakers' Bureau and Mass Hort. Gretel helped to establish and maintain two food production gardens that have provided fresh produce to the Marlboro Food Pantry for the last six years.
