West Virginia State University Extension Service will hold a garden workshop series centering on lawn and landscape weeds at the West Virginia Pumpkin Park in Milton.

The series will kick off Thursday, Aug. 30, from 10 a.m. until noon.

"This information is perfect for any gardener looking to eradicate weeds from his or her garden," said Scott Byars, program leader for agriculture and natural resources with WVSU Extension Service, in a WVSU press release. "We want participants to be able to identify the common weeds they'll find in their lawns and landscapes."

It costs $10 to attend each workshop. Participants are asked to register by contacting Brad Cochran, WVSU extension associate at 304-541-3301.
