WSU Extension Yakima published new gardening guides on August 8, August 1, July 25, July 18, and July 11, 2026, offering practical advice for local gardeners.

The guides cover micro-dwarf tomatoes, which grow 2-3 feet tall; native plants preferred by gardeners; iris care after blooming; shade cloth for heat-stressed plants; and managing earwigs, which were discussed at the Farmer's Market.

These resources are available online at extension.wsu.edu/yakima and provide actionable tips for Yakima residents to improve their gardening success during the growing season.
