When: Friday April 28th, 9 am–Noon

Where: Meet at the top of the main staircase, just behind the Fort Mason General's Residence. If no one is there to greet you, please walk into the gardens – we are already working on the site!  Registration is required.

Please join us at the Black Point historic gardens for a day of land stewardship, pollinators, and poetry! We'll spend time maintaining our native wildflower gardens, a pollinator haven, and explore the ways poetry intersects with and is inspired by nature. If you have a favorite poem, or poetry of your own, please feel welcome to bring it along to share.
