In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, & in consideration of the recent guidance from Governor Newsom & the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), the UC Master Gardeners of Monterey & Santa Cruz Counties are canceling all of our upcoming classes and events. This cancellation will remain in effect through April 30, 2020, & it will be updated as guidance from the state changes.
We realize that our classes & events are valued by our community, & we appreciate your continued support & understanding during this public health challenge. We will attempt to offer our canceled classes at a future time, and in the interim, we will post instructional gardening videos on our Facebook page.
Rescheduled classes will be announced online and by email, sign up to receive email here
In the meantime, enjoy the wildflowers and the blossoms on fruit trees, and please stay safe by following recommended health practices in the coming weeks.

Learn how to plant, grow, and care for beautiful Dahlias with Kristine Albrecht, president of the Monterey Bay Dahlia Society. Kristine launched her Blackbird Farm in 2007 while planning to reclaim a half acre on the east side of Santa Cruz. The weed-choked plot had been fallow for several years, before Kristine planted over 1,000 diverse tubers. Her beautiful blooms have won regional and national awards including the best small bloom at the national show and both the Derrill Hart Award and the Lynn P. Dudley award for her own cultivar, KA's Cloud. In 2012 and2016 Kristine was awarded the trophy for the largest dahlia shown in the U.S. Locally you can see many of her blooms at the Santa Cruz County Fair and at the Monterey Bay Dahlia Show. This Dahlia class will start in the classroom then move outside for a hands-on demonstration so dress for the weather and possibly wet soil.
Sign up early as the class is limited to 30 seats!
The fee for this class is $5. Please arrive 15 minutes early to check-in or register for the class. Part of the class will be held outside, so a hat, sunscreen and layered clothing are advised.
