Native Garden Tour Volunteer Opportunities

Registration for the Fifth Annual Bringing Back the Natives Garden Tour, which will take place on Sunday, May 3, 2009, is now open at www.bringingbackthenatives.net! This free, award-winning tour features 50 pesticide-free gardens that conserve water, provide habitat for wildlife, and contain 50% or more native plants.

The Native Plant Sale Extravaganza will take place throughout the week end of May 2 and 3. Please go here for details: http://www.bringingbackthenatives.net/plantsale.html

The Tour is seeking a volunteer webmistress/webmaster; experience with HTML and CSS, and editing size and resolution of digital images is necessary. We currently use Dreamweaver and PhotoShop. While site maintenance goes on throughout the year fall is the busiest time, as the “Preview the Gardens” section is being created then. If you’d like to help support the Bringing Back the Natives Garden Tour and have the skills and some time to spare, please e-mail Tour Coordinator Kathy Kramer at Kathy@KathyKramerConsulting.net or call (510) 236-9558 between 9 am and 9 pm.

Gardens are being sought for the May, 2010 Tour. The application can be found here:
