As a gardener, it can be tough to navigate a cold and wet spring. 

University of Illinois Extension Horticulture Educator Andrew Holsinger is there to help. 

He says that while it can be tough on some plants, others are thriving. 

Holsinger does warn against planting your seeds too early. He also suggests a raised garden bed. 

The extension is offering a course on the benefits of raised garden beds at 2 p.m. Thursday, May 19th at the Taylorville Public Library.
