You‘re invited to visit, ask questions, and garden with us when we‘re working in the garden.
Our focus is demonstrating and teaching best gardening practices for growing edible vegetables, greens, and herbs enjoyed in the food of the many Asian cultures represented in Santa Clara County and Cupertino.
