Garden Highlights and Opportunities
The Plant Sale
The recent sunshine is "awakening" our early-season plants. We have a variety of locally sourced
and propagated plants available, including Hellebore seedlings. You can also browse our
collection of vintage items and collectibles. All proceeds directly sustain the Demonstration
Garden.
Children’s Garden
The Children’s Garden is in "naptime mode," but it remains a wonderful spot for inspiration. We
are currently planning several new activities for children to be launched in the coming months.
Community Resources
Free Produce Stand
Our produce selection varies weekly based on local abundance. This week, we expect a variety
of citrus, broccoli, and cabbage. We invite you to take home fresh harvests or bring your own
surplus produce to share with the community.
Community Pantry
The pantry provides non-perishable food items to local families. We are currently in need of
donations to rebuild our stock. Thank you for your continued generosity in supporting this
resource.
Seed Exchange
Visit the exchange to pick up cold season seeds or donate seeds you no longer need. Master
Gardeners will be on-site to answer your planting questions and offer advice on winter
gardening.
Pest Management Tips
Winter is an ideal time for garden preparation and preventative care. For timely advice on
maintaining garden health, please refer to the UC IPM Seasonal Landscape Checklist. You can
view the current month’s strategies or sign up for their monthly email newsletter.
We look forward to seeing you there!
