Community Calendar

Come join us in our little sanctuary, where we all love to play/work in the dirt/mud (and those words aren't dirty words either!)
The Non-Profit Community Garden in Willits is "NOW" accepting sign-ups to reserve garden spots. If you are interested in growing your own produce, yet have no place to do so, then get on the ball and call Michael ADair at 707-456-4395.

Take a guided tour of the MCBG Mushroom Collection! The Gardens is home to more than 160 species of wild mushrooms during fall and winter. Mushrooms are the fruiting bodies of Macrofungi. Generally hidden underground, these reproductive structures lie dormant until the rainy season, when they sprout above the soil from organic material.

​Enjoy this introduction to mushroom identification followed by a guided walk with Naturalist and Mycologist, Mario Abreu each Monday from November 17 through December 22. Mario will begin with an approximately 45-minute introduction followed by a 2-hour guided field walk that involves standing for long periods of time, and venturing off the main trails. Please remember, mushrooms found at Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens should stay at Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens... DO NOT PICK OR COLLECT from our botanical collection!

Hijinks of the High Baroque: Composers Behaving Badly

A fun and user-friendly concert that mixes humor and the High Baroque. Beautiful pieces are punctuated with hilarious stories of the composers' misdeeds and shenanigans. Consisting of pieces written by some of the greats —Handel, Telemann, Veracini, Rameau, Purcell, etc — it is an engaging approach to music that is often typecast as “too serious.” The musicians presenting this delightful program are Judith Linsenberg-recorder, Alexa Hayes-Pilon-viola da gamba, Elizabeth Blumenstock-violin, and Katherine Heater-harpsichord from Musica Baroque.
