SUMMARY:Calgary Seedy Saturday
DESCRIPTION:Seedy Saturday is back in person for 2022! Saturday\, March 19  from 10am to 3pm at Winston-Heights Mountview Community Association (520 27 Ave NE). This is a free\, drop-in event.\n\n \nPlease note that while masking is no longer required\, it is strongly encouraged for the safety of all participants. \nCalgary Seedy Saturday is keeping the skill of growing from seed to seed alive in Calgary. As large commercial seed companies consolidate and only offer more hybrids and patented varieties\, we are increasingly losing the regionally adapted collections that have developed in our unique prairie climate. \n  \nCalgary Seedy Saturday is part of the worldwide Seedy Saturday/Sunday events that celebrate open-pollinated seeds.  \n \nContact Information\nYou can reach us at calgaryseedysaturday@gmail.com\, or visit our facebook page.

SUMMARY:MGAA: Insect Pests and Their Natural Enemies
DESCRIPTION:Insect Pests and Their Natural Enemies with Scott Meer\, \nInsect pests can cause havoc on farmers crops and urban gardens. In the past the common approach has been to reach for insecticides but increasingly both farmers and urban gardeners have been partnering with mother nature to help with control. Natural enemies of insects can be our friends but how effective are they and how do we work with them? Lets take a tour of the world of natural enemies and discover the possibilities. \nThis session will be recorded and available to ticket holders for 1 week following the presenation. \nScott received his BSc in Agriculture from the University of Alberta in 1982 and MSc in Entomology (Biological Control of Wheat Stem Sawfly) from Montana State University in 2002. Scott has served the agriculture industry as a District Agriculturist\, Regional Conservation Coordinator\, Crop Specialist and Provincial Entomologist. After 35 years of public service\, Scott retired and started a private consulting practice (Mayland Ag Consulting) and now works one on one with horticultural and broad acre producers\, providing planning\, scouting and problem-solving advice. In his spare time\, Scott is an avid gardener\, cross country skier and sailor. \n Tickets

SUMMARY:MGAA:  Sexual Pollination with Janet Melrose
DESCRIPTION:Seeds are Sexy!\n\n\nSeeds are really just sexual propagation\, but they are ‘sexy’\, as in ‘the rage’\, these days.

SUMMARY:MGAA:  A Lifetime of Lessons from a Tree Whisperer
DESCRIPTION:Join author\, arborist and tree guru Kevin Lee\, the ‘Tree Whisperer’ as he talks ‘trees’.\nKevin Lee\, a student of Dr Alex Shigo\, has been an arborist in Calgary since the 80s and runs a holistic tree service\, krltreeeservice.com . \nHe is the author of \, Your trees\, what they want you to know\, a lifetime of lessons from a tree whisperer\, published this year by Lee Valley tools. A book that focuses on zone 3 tree care. \nKevin advocates a healthy\, chemical free tree care practise\, where a deeper knowledge of the tree itself\, the soil it lives in and regular deep watering usually give you a strong tree that needs little else. These practices free you up from the \, business as usual\, of many tree services. \nOnce the pattern of the healthy tree is in your mind and an understanding of what is normal\, any abnormality will jump out\, because regular through visual inspections are as important as anything else you do
