Twice a week, a garden workday is hosted for the UCSC students. During these workdays, students are taught how to maintain and improve the Tierra Viva garden space.
Throughout the spring quarter, some of the workday activities included:
Pruning fruit trees
Seed starting crops in the greenhouse
Weeding invasive plants
Planting crop starters
Designing and building sturdier garden bed covers
Harvesting winter crops
UCSC students can sign up to be on the volunteer mailing list
