About the Event
Think you’re finished gardening once summer is finished? Think again!
As the summer season begins to wind down, it’s time to start thinking about transitioning your summer garden to the fall and winter seasons. Learn how to make gardening fun and productive all year long with the UC Master Gardeners of Santa Clara County.
This two-week gardening program, held on Saturday, September 19 and 26, will teach you how to close out your summer garden, prepare for fall crop planting, and enrich and replenish your soil.
