EcoFair and ‘How-to-Garden’ Tour

April 17, 2013 by Tania Marien

This weekend the Wood Streets Green Team in Riverside will host its annual How-to-Garden Tour in partnership with the Riverside Community College Eco-Fair. This special event will occur on Sunday, April 21, 2013.

The RCC Eco-Fair will be held on campus from 11 AM – 2 PM and will feature local organizations dedicated to sustainability and environmental awareness. The garden tour will highlight three private gardens and the new community garden at Riverside Community College. The garden tour will be held from 11 AM – 4 PM. Tickets can be purchased at the tour sites (a donation of $5 is suggested).

The Wood Streets neighborhood in Riverside is located south of historic downtown Riverside, home of the beautiful Mission Inn. The Wood Streets Green Team is composed of Riverside residents dedicated to promoting sustainable living in Riverside.

More than 20 local groups will take part in the RCC Eco-Fair.
Exhibitors include: ArtPlantae, Child Leader Project, community garden groups, Growcology, Habitat for Humanity Riverside, Riverside County Waste Management Master Composters, Santa Ana Watershed Association, and the Western Municipal Water District.

The RCC Eco-Fair will be held under the covered walkway between the Math and Science Building (#12 on map) and the new community garden. Parking will be available in the lot on the corner of Magnolia Avenue and Ramona (see map).
