About the Event
The Gardening Education Center (GEC) is a dynamic, experimental garden where UC Master Gardeners employ environmentally sound, water-wise methods to propagate and grow a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, herbs, pollinator plants and cover crops throughout the year. The GEC features a range of growing spaces including raised beds, green houses and in-ground plots as well as a large Johnson-Su Bioreactor composting system.
Stop by anytime between 10:00 am and 12:00 pm on the first Wednesday of the month to see what is growing in the garden, learn a few gardening techniques and meet the Master Gardeners who tend the garden.

Enter the San Mateo County Event Center parking lot from Delaware Street and drive to the left where you will see a green lawn and a large eucalyptus tree; the garden is adjacent to the lawn area.
