The Stanislaus Sprout

Thanks to donations from readers like you, our Pollinator Gardening project raised a total of $1,000. This amount will go towards our garden signage and pathway. We've sent out narrowleaf milkweed seed packets, which you should receive in the mail soon.

If you have a backyard*, you could be growing your own fruit trees! Did you know? Fruit trees can be kept under 6' tall so you can easily access the fruit.

Here at the Ag Center in Modesto, we are dreaming about next steps for our Pollinator Garden/Outdoor Classroom. You can see in this photo that native plants in bloom are quite beautiful.

Greetings newsletter subscribers! Giving Tuesday is next week, Tuesday, November 28, 2022. It's an ideal time of year to support a local organization you care about.

Signs of autumn are all around us. . .we've had some rain, trees are showing off their fall colors and losing their leaves, fewer plants are blooming, the days have gotten shorter with the nights getting chillier.
