3/15 Saturday in the Soil

Join the Museum for a very special community gardening day, as we team up with the Santa Cruz County Chapter of the California Native Plant Society!

Dig in and flex your green thumb as we tackle invasive species in Pilkington Creek and plant native species in the Museum’s Garden Learning Center. Learn from the California Native Plant Society’s horticultural experts about local ecology, native plants, pollinator gardens, and sustainable backyard practices. 

It’s time to volunteer and get your hands dirty!

📆 Saturday, March 15th

⏱️ 10 a.m. – 12 p.m.

📍 Santa Cruz Museum of Natural History
