This monthly communication lists local gardening events, recently published gardening books, recipes, articles, and tips specific to this area. Each issue also features the opportunity to win a free plant or gardening-related product. For the upcoming April 2021 Pegplant’s Post, the giveaway is the Boutique Organic Plant Nutrient Kit courtesy of the Whole Gardener.

Whole Gardener is a Virginia-based soil and nutrient company. They sell kits consisting of the three basic fertilizers, micronutrients, and a recipe book so gardeners can formulate the nutrients for their plants.  Using one of almost 200 different Whole Gardener nutrient recipes from the Whole Gardener nutrient recipe book, and the four Whole Gardener nutrient ingredients, gardeners can create a customized fertilizer blend that will fit the nutrient needs of any plant they want to grow. The giveaway is the boutique organic plant nutrient kit which is designed for gardening on a smaller scale. It is tailored to the urban gardener or anyone with limited space to grow plants. The boutique kit consists of the four nutrients, the recipe book, the applicator jar, the measuring spoon set, and the pH test kit.  According to the plant’s needs as outlined in the recipe book, gardeners mix the right amount of nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus and micronutrients in order to have a thriving garden.
