Coastal Oaks Garden Entry

We would like to thank all of the
Nueces County Master Gardeners
who helped us with our garden cleanup after Hurricane Harvey!

On Friday, September 29, 2017 the Nueces County Master Gardeners came to the Aransas/San Patricio Master Gardeners Coastal Oaks Garden to assist us with the cleanup in our garden.  They came armed with chain saws, pole saws, loppers and clippers.  They worked hard alongside our members to help us take the first step toward making  Coastal Oaks Garden as beautiful as it was before the storm.  We are eternally grateful.
