Early Spring Swap
What to Expect
We’re excited to host our first swap at Yerba Buena Gardens, a beautiful new venue in SF! Thanks to the generosity of Yerba Buena Gardens Conservancy, we’ll be gathering in their community space for a morning of plant-filled fun.
Join us for a day of connecting with fellow plant lovers, exploring the gardens (courtesy of YBGC!), learning from plant expert Paul Lee Cannon (@paulleenation) in a hands-on workshop, rock painting to prep your garden for spring, and of course—plant swapping!
