Is this the year you’re really going to start a garden? Did you start a garden in the past few years and wonder why things didn’t go as well as you hoped? Gardening for Beginners (and Not Really Beginners) can be the answer you’re seeking. Gardens can thrive when science-based practices are used.

Would you like to learn more of the basics of these research-based horticultural practices? Sign up for this course which is being taught by University of California trained Master Gardeners. Whether you have a big or small garden, patio, or deck you’ll find value in this class.

In this 4-SESSION class you'll learn about:

  • Basic plant needs and why employing them crucial;
  • How to get your garden growing;
  • How to choose the best plants for your garden and keep them safe;
  • How to get your garden into shape so your plants will thrive!
There will be hands-on experiences throughout the classes which will take what you are learning and put it into practice!
Class #1-#3 will take place on Saturday, March 1, 8, 15 at Camden Community Center... Class #4 will take place on Saturday, March 22 at the Martial Cottle Park located at the UC Master Gardener Demonstration Garden in San Jose.
The demonstration garden showcases the best practices for home gardeners and you'll see science-based garden theory in action in a diverse garden. You will also receive some tomato seedlings to repot for later planting in your own garden later in the spring.
