3rd Annual Earth Day Festival at Full Circle Farm Start: 10:00 am End: 2:00 pm Full Circle Farm's 3rd annual Earth Day Festival is coming your way Sunday, April 18th, so save the date! Last year, more than 1,800 folks from the community enjoyed this incredible, fun, family-oriented event that featured educational workshops, tours, entertainment, and oodles of hands-on kid’s activities. We will also be holding our 1st annual Full Circle Farm 11K Run/Walk (1K for each of our fruitful acres). The run will take the morning of our Earth Day Festival. Drop by the Master Gardener booth with your gardening questions, or to say hi! For more information, contact Full Circle Farm at info@fullcirclesunnyvale.org Going Native Garden Tour Start: 10:00 am End: 4:00 pm Since 2003, the Bay Area's pioneering native garden tour has showcased gardens featuring California native plants. This community-based tour is free of charge to the public upon successful registration. Each tour features about 75 gardens, most of them private home gardens, which are open on tour day for viewing by the public in a do-it-yourself, open house format. The goals of the tour are to demonstrate reduced water use, reduced chemical and pesticide use, improved habitat, and the unique aesthetic appeal of gardens designed with California native plants. The Master Gardener Waterwise Demonstration Garden in Palo Alto is on the tour - drop by and tour the garden with Master Gardener docents! The tour is free but registration is required. After you register, you will be sent a list of gardens and addresses, and descriptions of the gardens so you can plan which gardens to visit.
