Open Garden Day 2020 Schedule
All Master Gardener events are currently canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. When routine public events are permitted our open garden schedule is as follows.
The garden is open to the public on the fourth Saturday of the month, March through October. Its located at 891 Mountain Ranch Road in San Andreas, CA. On Open Garden Days, Master Gardeners give demonstrations and garden tours. They will also answer home gardening questions as well as assist in identifying and diagnosing plant and pest problems. Plant sales take place at garden open days with the exception of the hottest and driest months, July and August.
When the garden is not open, home gardening assistance is offered by Master Gardeners through the help line at: 209-754-2880. Leave a message regarding the problem and a Master Gardener will return the call.

“Local produce is closer to the source, so it is fresher, tastier and more nutritious than produce that has traveled further to reach your plate. Dollars spent at the Market are an important source of income for local farmers and tend to recirculate locally”, CalaverasGROWN President, Sean Kriletich.
