The Los Aangeles Community Garden Council hosts its 5th Annual picnic/training/workshop thing today (hey, now) at the Loma Alta Park and Community Center in Altadena.
The shindig features workshops, non-profit tables and all things garden gnome. Los Angeles Times' Emily Green speaks but there's also plenty of talk and talks about home-canning, home-canning businesses and the "Guru of Doo-Doo" (hopefully it's not a combo workshop).

The event has workshops all day. For more info, visit the event's web site.
