You are invited to our:
First
Virtual Meeting: Wednesday 6/30 from 7:00 - 8:30 PM Free via Zoom: Soil
and Mulches Discussion with Gary Matsuoka of Laguna Hills Nursery
Did you know that the soil you use is very important for growing healthy plants and can actually be the reason plants fail?
Laguna
Hills Nursery offers a beautiful and extensive selection of plants and
propagates many of them themselves. It is crucial for them to understand
soils.
Member and CoChair Frank will be hosting this discussion
onsite with Gary. Frank will bring our collection of 30 to 40 different
soils and mulches available in the area for Gary to evaluate and give
his opinion on what he feels they should be used for, the pros and cons
of each, plus corrective measures if an incorrect soil is used for an
application.

Additional Info Our chapter Speaker Policies

  • When discussing a problem, we expect our speakers to also discuss solutions. We are here to help educate members on growing their own various fruit trees & edible plants.
  • All speakers' talks will be posted on the chapter's Youtube Channel sometime after the meeting. Note that the meeting recording may be edited (usually to remove unimportant parts or dead space) and topic presenters will have the opportunity to approve their content prior to posting.
  • The video of the meeting recording is property of the South Orange County CRFG Chapter and the presenter. The presenter will be given the digital recording of the meeting to use at their discretion.

Requests to Members

  • Please feel free to suggest topics and/or presenters for our future chapter meetings!
    • If you know someone who might be interested or who you would like to learn from, please let us know. At this time, we are a dirt poor chapter and we cannot pay speakers. We look forward to when we can afford dirt, then upgrade it to soil! Even with this limitation, we intend to provide informative and interesting meetings. :-)
  • For existing Chapter Members, Please let us know if you are interested in helping out with the chapter by contacting us the chapter email address.
