Started in the Fall of 2009 on approximately 3/4 of an acre behind the Guadalupe County Annex Building, the Guadalupe County Master Gardeners and Texas AgriLife Extension are dedicated and committed to make this a teaching garden for people to learn how to grow their own food. Tuesday and Friday are standing workdays starting at 8:00 a.m. and everyone is welcome to help or just come by to learn about what we do. Food grown goes to the local Schertz food banks.
