SUMMARY:Community Tomato Tasting and Seed Saving Demonstration

We’ll show you how to collect and ferment seeds from tomatoes at the tasting for planting next year\, and get deep into discussion on tomato reproduction for high-quality seed.\n\nDon’t have tomatoes? No problem! We’ll have different varieties on hand to share.

SUMMARY:CCGA Coordinating Meeting
DESCRIPTION:So winter is on its way! And that means you are all invited to attend the December CCGA coordinating meeting that is coming up soon – Saturday December the 12th from 10:00 am to Noon at the Green Tech Center. We will start our gathering in our usual casual fashion by sharing how gardening went for you this season…and what you will do the same (or differently!) next season and by snacking on any treats you would like to bring. \nBut our main goal is to start planning for the 2016 CCGA Spring Gathering and dividing up the usual event planning type tasks between each of the 4 CCGA working groups (Membership\, Resources\, Communication & Education).
