10-15-2018 Saving Seeds with Yvonne Savio. Yvonne grew up and still lives on a ¾ acre hillside in Pasadena, growing fruits, vegetables, and flowers year-round in manure- and compost-amended gardens. She is passionate about enabling others to enjoy the benefits of "growing your own." She earned degrees in Journalism, English Literature, Art and Photography from Cal State, and also obtained a Horticultural degree from American River College in Sacramento. For 15 years, Yvonne worked in the Botany and Vegetable Crops Cooperative at UC Davis. She is a Master Gardener with many awards and accolades. Yvonne also maintains demonstration and trial gardens throughout California, specializing in drought-tolerant techniques for growing vegetables, fruits, perennials, roses, and succulents. In addition, she documents the creative fun stuff of re-purposed tools and garden art on her excellent website gardeninginla.net. Yvonne discusses, which seeds to save and why, and the techniques involved. LAGC member Nina does a fabulous job at introducing Yvonne. gardeninginla.net
