Earth-Friendly Gardening: Designing your Garden
Join the UC Master Gardeners of Monterey & Santa Cruz Counties for this special summer workshop!
Earth-friendly Gardening is Master Gardeners’ advice for creating sustainable landscapes that benefit the broader environment and make things easier for the gardener. By adopting these practices, you can grow a healthy garden that is beautiful, in sync with nature, and less prone to problems.
The first step is getting to know your garden site. During the workshop we will perform a site analysis of the library's surroundings using tools and techniques that you can use in your own garden. How much sunlight do you get? How does that change throughout the year? What’s your microclimate? What type of soil do you have? What other plants grow in your area?
You'll leave with resources that will help you decide what plants to plant
Space is limited. Registration is required.
There are even more upcoming gardening workshops!
