Plants that grow in healthy living soil are more able to cope with stress, including droughts. California native plants have evolved in relationship with life in the soil. Learn about the diversity of life in the soil, the relationships between the plants and the soil life, and how to encourage and grow life in your soil. Theresa will share her experience of turning an annual weed patch into a thriving native garden that uses very little irrigation water.
