Tickets are $10 per person and the proceeds benefit the Curry County Master Gardener Association. This non-profit organization uses the funds to support school garden projects in Brookings and Gold Beach and to provide ongoing sustainable gardening education for the community, including plant clinics.
There will be a plant clinic held during the tour at the Kalmiopsis School Garden - if you have plants you would like to identify or plants that have a disease or pest problem that you would like help with, put a sample in a plastic bag and bring it to K-School on Tour Day.
