Forthcoming Events

Saturday April 5th, 1.00 to 4.00 pm
Guadalupe River Park & Gardens Visitor Center
438 Coleman Ave, San Jose.

A meeting of the Northern California Branch of The Mediterranean Garden
Society.

This event will begin with a brief, docent led tour of the Guadalupe River
Park grounds, followed by light refreshments and a presentation about The Late Show Gardens, a brand new event to take place at Copia in Napa Valley.

Our main presentation will be a slide show by Aaron Driggs Dillon (a third
generation Californian, and fourth generation citrus grower at Four Winds Growers in Fremont) entitled The History of Citrus in California: From Farms to Yards - covering the history of citrus in California from its beginnings with the Spanish up to today. It will focus on the development of dwarf citrus and the role that Four Winds Growers played in developing this type of trees. The talk will also cover some of the exciting new varieties that have been developed during the last few years.

This event is open to the public and we ask a $10 donation to help defray the
costs.
