Master Gardener's Return this Sunday May 27th!

Master Gardeners are back!



It's getting hotter -- and the UCCE LA County Master Gardeners are back at the MVCC Green Tent on May 27 with seasonally appropriate herb and veggie plants and seeds to share.

Bring your gardening questions or just stop by to pick up a free seedling and packet of seeds. Organic seedlings planted in organic soil with love for the Mar Vista community!

Come and visit the UCCE/LA County Master Gardeners at the Mar Vista Community Council's Green Tent for seeds and seedlings -- all free! The perfect crops for your summer garden!

UC Cooperative Extension develops and implements community-based educational programs that address the critical needs of the county's diverse and multiethnic population.
Staff and volunteers provide and encourage the use of current research-based information in the areas of nutrition, youth development, urban gardening, horticulture and the environment.

And: BE ALERT!! The Asian Citrus Psyllid HAS been found in Southern California. This rapidly-spreading pest that carries a deadly virus, with the potential to kill all citrus trees in our state.

That's not an exaggeration. The first line of defense is the backyard fruit tree. ACT FAST -- TIME IS CRITICAL
