The Center, 4210 N. Campbell Ave., in cooperation with the University of Arizona College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, has scheduled free spring gardening classes for April and May.
Master gardeners will help with plant identification, diagnosis and treatment suggestions.

People can also take their plants or questions on a walk-in basis anytime from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. - all for free.
