Herbs for the Pacific Northwest

Of the thousands of herbs that grow across the globe, a mere handful grow and thrive in the Pacific Northwest. Which ones prefer fertile soil and water? And which ones want nothing except eroded rock? Sun or shade? We’ve got herbs for them as well. Bruce Bennett, a 20-year veteran of the WSU Master Gardener Program in King County, will share his knowledge — including which new herbs we should be growing in our maritime gardens — in his talk, “Herbs for the Pacific Northwest.”

Bruce is a garden designer, lecturer and contributing garden columnist to many community publications from Jefferson to King and Yakama Counties.
