Looking Ahead - We hold this same event every year in April. Signups start the beginning of March.

Spring Garden Market - Master Gardener Plant Sale and Educational Fair

Be a part of the fun by encouraging sustainability and healthy lifestyles through gardening. At our annual market we sell over 20,000 tomato, pepper, herb, flower and succulent plants, give educational talks and have activities for children.

Ideal for high school and college groups or individuals. Hours will count as volunteer service hours for students and you will recieve documentation when you complete your shift.

The things you'll be doing:

• Maintain a "Plant Check" area, much like a coat check for the plants our customers have purchased

• Help patrons load their cars with plants / other items purchased

• Assist in the sales line or other areas as needed as the event progresses

Preregistration is required. A volunteer waiver http://mgsantaclara.ucanr.edu/files/254731.pdf MUST be signed and brought with you. Younger than 18 must be signed by a parent or legal guardian.

Arriving - We recommend getting dropped off or parking on Chynoweth Ave near Vauxhall Circle. A walk in entrance is close to the Master Gardener Spring Garden Market. Report to Plant Check-In in the Shade House.

Bring a water bottle and dress to be outdoors! Closed sturdy closed toed shoes, hat and sunscreen are recommended.
