SUMMARY:A Weekend of Tule Teachings with Diana Almendariz and Family
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a weekend of Tule Teachings\, led by Diana Almendariz and her daughters Christina Almendariz and Ooti Maxine. Through two free\, public events – a field trip and a hands-on workshop – they will introduce the community to the natural and cultural importance of tule\, and share their understanding of how tule has been – and can be again – interwoven into our land\, waterways and our lives\, through stories and touch. \nWhile rooted in Wintun ecology and culture\, learning to care for tule benefits all those who live alongside it. With this in mind\, Diana complements her cultural storytelling with scientific knowledge\, and encourages a holistic approach to learning where all compatible perspectives are encouraged to thrive. \nField Trip to the Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area | Suggested Donation please RSVP\nSaturday May 3\, 9 am-12pm\nCaravan begins at Yolo Bypass Wildlife Headquarters (45211 Co Rd 32B (aka Chiles Rd)\, Davis\, CA 95618).

The caravan will stop at 2 locations for exploration and discussion with Diana and other knowledge keepers of the marsh. Space is limited\, so ride-shares and carpools are strongly encouraged. \nPlease complete our registration form so we may gather information on how to best accommodate the needs of our community members.

SUMMARY:Gardens Gone Native Tour
DESCRIPTION:The Sacramento Valley Chapter of the California Native Plant Society (CNPS) is once again sponsoring a free\, in-person\, self-guided native garden tour on Saturday\, May 3\, 2025. There will be approximately 30 gardens on display featuring California native plants; garden designs; plants for sun\, shade\, or a combination; and small spaces\, large lots\, and everything in between. Various local native plant nurseries/vendors will also be present at select gardens. Join us on the 2025 Gardens Gone Native Garden Tour – bring a friend or two\, or make it a family outing! \nThe tour supports the mission of the CNPS Sacramento Valley Chapter by raising awareness of the beauty and environmental functions of California’s diverse native plants. Our goal is to provide members of our community with the opportunity to view outstanding examples of native plant gardens\, promote the benefits and use of California natives in home and public gardens\, and provide information on how to plant and successfully grow native plants. Our hosts will have plants labeled with both their scientific and common names and will be available to answer questions the day of the tour. \nView our 2024 Good Day Sacramento segment embedded below or via https://youtu.be/SgSlMWuwSyE?si=FeDizKATzr2wTGdD. \nFollow us on Facebook and Instagram: @gardensgonenative \nWeb: https://www.sacvalleycnps.org/gardens-gone-native-tour/ \n#californianativeplants #canativeplantsociety #garden #gardening #gardensgonenative #gardentour #grownatives #homegrownhabitat #nativeplants #sacramento #sacvalleycnps #tour
