MASTER GARDENERS PRESENT: DEFENSIBLE SPACE AND DROUGHT PLANNING - Fire and Rain, two powerful forces of nature, are all too familiar to California gardeners. The possibility of fire must be built into your landscaping plans. There are requirements and suggestions to pay attention to. In case of an actual forest fire, what needs to be done then? Everyone in northern CA is aware of the on-going drought.
There is a year around concern to deal with. When it does rain, how do we control it? Are there reasonable ways to store and save it? These and other issues will be discussed at this free class hosted by UCCE Master Gardeners of Amador County. Class will be held on Saturday, January 17, 9am-12pm, at the GSA building, 12200-B Airport Road in Jackson (Martell). For more information contact the Master Gardeners at 223-6838 from 10am to noon, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays or email mgamador@ucdavis.edu

The first half of this free class will focus on making low- and no-sugar preserves, including a discussion of both the benefits and limitations of making low-sugar products. A low-sugar jelly will be made in class with a demonstration of water bath canning. The second half of the class will focus on dehydrating herbs and their many uses to season food and reduce salt in your diet. Join us and learn to make your own 5-minute salad dressing that is both healthy and tasty with no added sugar or salt. Samples will include herb-seasoned popcorn and zesty breadcrumbs that will add a flavorful, salt-free touch to just about any meal you serve.

DOCENTS NEEDED for Monteverde Museum. Presently, the museum is only opened two days out of each month. When the museum is opened we usually have 20 plus visitors a day. Local folks, visitors, in state and out of state are always happy to be able to go inside the store and experience the feeling of days gone by. Many will say it is like stepping back in time. Many will also say, they have been through Sutter Creek before and to their dismay the store has been closed.
It would be beneficial for Sutter Creek if the museum would be opened more often. Unfortunately, we have a shortage of docents. Presently, we have only 4 active docents to open the museum. We really need people to volunteer to just have the doors open to the public. If you know of anyone who has free time to do possibly one day a month, or even a few hours one day a month, please let us know.
Still reaching out for other ideas to encourage folks to volunteer time. If you have any ideas please forward to me at rkf48@aol.com
