Happy Spring! We have been loving these cool days at the garden! Our members and volunteers are growing too! If you’ve ever wanted to pop in, join us for a tour during our second Saturday Work Days (8a – 11a).

Hello gardeners,

Our next workday is this Saturday we will start early at 8:00 and probably put everything up by 9:30 to prepare for the “Coyote Awareness” talk by animal control. It should be very interesting. Please come and learn.

See you on Saturday
