Why do so many plants and gardens fail to thrive despite our best efforts and intentions? Soil health and irrigation are too often overlooked in our garden planning and maintenance, and can feel overwhelming to take on. Healthy soil creates healthy plants, yet what is healthy soil and how do we create it? Irrigation is essential to any garden or landscape, but how does it all work? Do we till, or can we choose not to? Different plant categories such as vegetables, annuals, perennials, shrubs, and trees each require different approaches to soil development and watering.
Welcome to The Traveling Spectacular! A surrealist vaudeville experience inspired by the dreams and dust of a bygone age. Allow your sense of wonder to ignite as we take you on a journey into the imagination: Grand illusions, a sword swallowing prestidigitator extraordinaire, vaudevillian comedy, a bevy of dancing beauties and the fire-breathing Devil himself! All set to original music by our Gypsy-Klezmer orchestra, the Oddjob Ensemble.

What goes in recycling here in Sonoma? Recyclable items include all plastic containers, cans and bottles, cardboard, and paper clean of food waste.

Many of us only think of honeybees when we think of pollinators, but did you know there are 1,600 species of native bees in California?! That’s quite a few bees and those bees need gardens.

This class is a remarkable opportunity to hear from two of the top people in the field – Dr. Gordon Frankie and Kate Frey. Dr. Frankie, trend-setting and renowned bee-friendly scientist from U.C. Berkeley, will discuss his research on native bees in urban environments, talk about their lives and share some spectacular, eye-opening photos of bees and their habitats. Kate Frey is the Chelsea Flower Show multiple gold-medal-winning designer of pollinator-friendly gardens and a popular garden educator.
