Garden Tools Maintenance Workshop | Mountain View

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Join author and gardener Claire Splan for this fun and informative workshop on Selecting and Maintaining a Gardener’s Most-Needed Tools followed by book signing.

Don’t waste your money on garden tools that won’t last or that you don’t really need! In this one-hour presentation you’ll learn which tools are essential for the home gardener, which are nice to have, and which are a waste of money; what qualities to look for when shopping for tools that will do the job and how much to pay; and how to care for your tools so that they’ll last a lifetime.

Claire Splan, a freelance writer and editor, is the author of California Month-by-Month Gardening and California Fruit and Vegetable Gardening, both published by Cool Springs Press. A member of the Garden Writers Association, Claire writes about gardening on her blog, An Alameda Garden, and has written for several garden-related websites. Claire has done presentations on various gardening topics at the San Francisco Flower & Garden Show, the UC Botanical Garden, the Los Angeles County Arboretum, the Southern California Spring Garden Show, and numerous garden clubs and other venues; and been interviewed on radio shows such as “GardenLife,” “Bob Tanem in the Garden,” and “Gardening Today.”
