Education & Stewardship: Notes From the Field
What We're Learning on the Land, in Santa Cruz and the greater South Bay
Stewardship is a practice, and practices are meant to be shared. This journal gathers what our crews are seeing and learning across the orchards, gardens, and landscapes we tend: seasonal know-how, growing wisdom for this coast, and the occasional dispatch from a project we loved.
