Master Gardeners Research Garden at Elkus Ranch
Recently we have updated the Gardens with 14 new raised beds! To see how this was done, click here.
Each year, we test various edibles and ornamentals to see what might do well in Climate Zone 17. Our findings are posted here (see links to the left) to help other home gardeners with information and advice.
As always, if you have questions about our work, feel free to contact us.
