Soil Health to Drought-Proof Your California Native Garden 
Wednesday, July 08, 2015 07:00pm
 
Contact (650) 948-7683

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. 

Theresa Lyngso is President of Lyngso Garden Materials, Inc., a 60-year-old family business. Theresa is a Master Composter and Master Gardener. She and her husband Joe grow California natives, roses, apples, pears, herbs and annual vegetables in their garden in Loma Mar.
