Published 1:30 am Thursday, September 4, 2025

Submitted photo At the August 9 Second Saturday Garden Walk participants gather to hear Clallam County Master Gardener Jan Bartron describe that the directly seeded squash plants in the Fifth Street Community Garden’s Food Bank plots had produced earlier than transplanted plants. Transplant shock can delay growth and fruit production, in contrast to directly seeded plants. Join us for the last walk of the season on September 13 at 328 E Fifth ST, Port Angeles, 10-11:30 a.m., rain or shine.
