Impact Report “Backyard Gardening” A public program entitled “Backyard Gardening” was presented by the agent to educate individuals on gardening in New Mexico. The program included information on understanding New Mexico soils, pH, soil analysis, soil amendments, fertilizers, mulches, climate zones, microclimates, and irrigation. Approximately 30 attendees gained knowledge that will enable them to be better gardeners in New Mexico. One attendee stated that she now understood why things that grew in Illinois, where she had previously lived, won’t grow in New Mexico.
