Classes, lectures, and workshops are available on water-wise gardening, 12 months of color in your garden, designing a native garden, native edibles, and other sustainable gardening topics. CNGF awards grants to schools, colleges, museums, and public spaces, whose stewards commit to providing help with installation and maintenance.
