Garden of the Sun Demonstration Garden

Garden of the Sun is open to the public on the 1st and 3rd Saturdays of each month. MG's can sign up on VMS to open & close. Great way to gain more hours. Always something to do at Garden of the Sun. Our first Saturday we were opened we talked to a dozen folks visiting for the first time. The Saturdays openings will be a 6 months trial, then will evaluate the public interest to continue being open. Exception in September, GOS will be closed Saturday, Sept 1st and Monday, Sept. 3rd due to the holiday weekend

2018 Master Gardener impact in California

In 2018, UC Master Gardener volunteers:

taught fire-wise landscaping practices in communities throughout California. Concerned residents engaged with our program through workshops, websites and Help Desks. This year, 45% of our clientele used the Help Desk system, seeking follow-up support and information from our trusted resources.

inspired 66% of water conservation workshop participants to start using or improve their use of low water-use plants for their landscape. Selecting plants adapted to our Mediterranean climate not only saves water for other precious uses, it means less dry and dead plant matter in our landscapes.

influenced 69% of pest management workshop attendees to monitor for weeds and 53% to remove or not introduce invasive plants. Being cognizant of weeds and invasive plants supports the health not only of our home landscapes but also our wild spaces including forest understory and grazing lands.

Together, we've touched the lives of millions of Californians this year and affected real and impactful change. I expect a growing need for UC Master Gardener support in our local communities next year, and in the years to come. With our incredible and dedicated volunteer corps, I know we can meet this need.

This Thanksgiving I want you to know that I am sincerely grateful for YOU – for your giving heart and for all your support of the UC Master Gardener Program.
