This mission of the Demonstration Garden is to demonstrate research-based, sustainable gardening practices for home gardeners with an emphasis on plant communities, best suited to the microclimates and
soils found in the Sierra Nevada foothills. We support regional biodiversity, conservation of resources and composting to promote healthy soil life.
