The Contra Costa Master Gardeners, in partnership with Sustainable Contra Costa are hosting a free event to promote sustainability in our gardens, neighborhoods and communities.  Over a dozen partner organizations will be on-hand to share information on sustainable strategies and healthy garden practices.

You can tour “Our Garden,” the Master Gardener demonstration garden that donates thousands of pounds of fresh produce to the Monument Crisis Center annually.  The day will also include presentations and informal demonstrations on topics such as backyard chickens, beekeeping, irrigation basics, bio-intensive gardening, composting, losing your lawn and backyard grapes.  Plus a plant sale, children’s activity area, food trucks, raffles, freebies and more…

Healthy gardens & communities… it’s in your hands.
