3.  SBCAN's Green Team invites you to help with the Edible Landscaping Demonstration Garden in Santa Maria, Sunday, September 25 from 10 a.m. to noon. The garden is located at 910 S. Oakwood Drive.

Come get some free starter vegetable plants provided by Plantel Nurseries.

Leonardo Espinoza Jr. is leading this "fun day" at the Edible Landscaping Demonstration Garden. He says:

You can give someone some food and feed them for a day, but teach them how to garden, you'll feed them for a season.
Bring your garden gloves and get ready to spruce up the garden. Invite your family and friends. Hope to see you there.
