2013 Gardening Guide and Calendar

Common garden myths…
and what really happens in your garden!

For years the gardening world has been riddled with myths. Now the new Sacramento County Master Gardeners 2013 Gardening Guide and Calendar gives you the correct gardening facts, along with month by month gardening tasks.

Order yours now and we'll deliver it to your door. And don’t forget to order extra copies for gift giving.

The 2013 Gardening Guide and Calendar will soon be available at retail locations throughout the Sacramento County area. See specific information in the column at the right about locations where they are currently available. Please note that prices may vary.

All proceeds from sales help support Sacramento County UC Master Gardener projects so we can continue to offer you events like Harvest Day, workshops at the Fair Oaks Horticulture Center, plant clinics, and many more gardening support activities.

Key Features of the Gardening Guide:

The Gardening Guide is written specifically for the Sacramento area, not "Northern California" or the Bay area, covering 12 months, from January 2013 through December 2013.
The Gardening Guide gives you month by month gardening maintenance suggestions, watering information, and how to handle pests and diseases, all based on University of California-approved information.
The calendar pages have space to write appointments and can be used as a journal to record gardening activities (like what, when and where the user has planted something, or when the aphids arrive in the spring).

Special features of the 2013 Gardening Guide:

Special articles
Every month features information about a local horticulture trip
Also featured are a Vegetable Planting Schedule, a glossary, and color photos dotted throughout
