Adaptation is an important part of nature. So is learning about nature – and gardening.
During these weird and socially distanced times, the UC Master Gardeners of Placer County have adapted some of their most popular workshops to online formats. The good news: Any gardener can participate anywhere with a good Internet connection.
So, Zoom on in on garden learning the next two Saturdays. Each workshop starts at 10:30 a.m.; participation is free.
On Saturday, Oct. 10, discover some new favorite California natives and how to keep them growing strong during “Gardening with Native Plants.” Learn how to add native plants to your landscape – and why that’s a good idea.
