 Plants thrive with less work using an organic approach! Did you know that simply by increasing the health of your soil, you are reducing pest problems?

Join Suzanne Bontempo, a professional gardener and environmental educator for more than 25 years, to learn why plants thrive when we garden organically, why it’s important to build soil health, what types of fertilizers to use and how to apply them, and best irrigation practices.

About the branch

The Library was designed by the firm of Bull, Stockwell, and Allen. The architectural style is that of the 19th century railroad yard in Tiburon. 
 
The site is part of the landfill of the 1890s done to create the railroad yard. Windows frame views of the marsh lands and Old St. Hilary's Open Space preserve. 
 
The expanded library was designed by Brown Reynolds Watford Architecture and added approximately 9,000 square feet, bringing the total size of the library to about 19,500 square feet.
