Under the Solano Sun

With the annual Master Gardener's Wreath Making Workshop coming up on December 1, 2018 (see the flyer below), I thought it might be interesting to look into the history of wreaths. What I discovered were two different histories of the wreath.

After Labor Day, I automatically start thinking about apples. And each year, on an autumn weekday, my husband and I head to Apple Hill and visit some of the orchards on the Apple Hill map. We usually bring home frozen baked apple products and a few bags of different kinds of apples.

Join the UC Master Gardeners of Solano County and learn how to make a beautiful wreath from fresh greens. Space is still available. See flyer for more details.

ave you ever been in the middle of a garden project and suddenly wondered how you got there? I pondered this question as I began what felt like my 10th hour of separating sunflower seeds from the chaff.

The calendar says its fall, our fall weather is wonderful during the day it has been in the 80's and cools down at night. The leaves are falling in my yard from my neighbors very large mulberry tree. I can say I'm getting my exercise raking them up.
