You can still participate in the Bringing Back the Natives free garden tours this coming Sunday, May 4, 2008. You can still register for the free self-guided tour at walk-in registration sites on the day of the tour. Learn more about walk-in registration.

For general information, see http://www.bringingbackthenatives.net/. Richmond gardens on the tour include;

• Rick and Monica Alatorre’s Garden
• Gabriele and Don Briggs' garden New!
• Tom and Shirley Butt’s garden
• Laurel Eber's garden
• Anni Jensen and Carol Manahan’s garden

We will be demonstrating honey extraction form our hives during our portion of the tour. With water rationing on the horizon, it's a good time to think about planting natives.
