The Pima County Master Gardeners program answered the call to create a garden reflecting diversity by choosing a 700 square foot raised garden bed to showcase past and present AAS Winners. The diversity theme had some unplanned rewards. During planning, committee members had an open dialog about diversity, not only in the garden but also in the local community and in the larger American society. Through these conversations, the gardeners realized that many diverse plants can be grown together in Southern Arizona. A sign in the garden distilled their mission:
“Arizona is not only rich culturally, but the state is also blessed with many habitats and growing seasons. The AAS Display Garden, part of the Pima County Master Gardeners program, celebrates diversity in 2021 by representing the variety of plants found in our deserts, mountains, and canyons. The selected plants highlight a variety of colors, sizes, and fragrances. Whether you enjoy Arizona’s hospitality during visits or call the state your home, please welcome our diverse showcase of succulents, flowers, fruits, and vegetables grown in Arizona’s sunshine.”
