With the season's first deep freeze, those gardens are likely on their way out for the winter.

The University of Illinois Extension is offering a gardening webinar series starting this Saturday. Extension Director for Logan, Menard, and Sangamon Counties, Terri Miller-Casey says this will give gardeners a chance to get a jump start on those gardening plans for next year.

According to Miller-Casey, there will be a session about the emerald ash borer and also an alternative planting session.
