ORONO, Maine — University of Maine Cooperative Extension publishes a free monthly newsletter for home gardeners — from novice to expert — with practical, research-based information available online for anytime access.
The Maine Home Garden News is published March through October, archived by year and available for subscription. Each issue includes a seasonal to-do list; articles on fruits, vegetables, native plants, lawn care, trees and shrubs; and links to videos and other resources.
“We enjoy sharing voices from a variety of Extension professionals and Maine gardeners in a fun and informative format,” says newsletter co-editor Kate Garland, UMaine Extension horticulturist.
Book reviews, profiles of Maine gardeners and in-depth features on pollinators are scheduled for upcoming issues.
