Avid gardeners will find many freebies to take home and plenty of gardening ideas at the San Joaquin County Fair which is wrapping up its final day today from noon to 7 p.m.
As soon as you step inside the fair’s main entrance, look immediately to your left and you will see a rose tree-lined meandering walkway. Along one side of the walkway are garden plots, each with a separate theme and concept.
The first plot is a demonstration on composting complete with posted information on how to do it and the benefits of using compost in the garden.
