Castro Valley Library’s Chabot/Canyon Room

3600 Norbridge Avenue, Castro Valley

Free native wildflower seeds, native plant cutting and seed swap. Free drawing to win a free native garden design consultation. Light snacks and drinks provided. If you have them, bring labelled native plants, seeds, or cuttings to share.  Also, bring envelopes to take seed swap seeds home in, and plastic bags with wet paper towels in them protect cuttings you have picked up. 

Join us to watch Doug Tallamy’s talk, “Nature’s Best Hope”, followed by a discussion about what we would like to do to make the places we live and work and play welcome areas for birds, butterflies and bees, as well as greener, healthier, and more beautiful cities for people, and how we can move forward to carry out our ideas.
