Join the San Tan Valley Master Gardeners for this outdoor drop-in program that investigates farming and gardening practices of the early native people of the desert Southwest. Adults and kids can learn about ancient technologies that were used to harvest and utilize the small (and occasionally immense) amount of rainfall that occurs in our desert to raise crops and feed their families during hot dry summers and cold winters. Enjoy displays and hands-on activities, including a craft table to decorate a rain stick to take home. Bring water, a hat and sunscreen. Meet at the picnic area near the flagpole at the main entrance.
