Bob Tanem In The Garden with Edie Tanem, November 23 2025, 9:00 amOur guest on the garden show -- Bob Tanem In The Garden with Edie Tanem -- this morning is Dan Posey. Dan was a colleague and sometimes competitor with Bob Tanem in the nursery business, they met competing with their show gardens at the Marin and Sonoma county fairs many years ago. Edie has known Dan since she was, well, a lot younger.
These days, Dan is with Oaks of Hebron, a non-profit service agency in Sonoma County, and he is mentoring a new startup nursery in Sebastopol called Growing Together Nursery, which complements Growing Together Farm and other endeavors. The nursery is located at the former California Carnovores retail location at 2833 Old Gravenstein Highway in Sebastopol, and is open Tuesdays through Thursdays from 9:00 am to 4:30 pm, and on Saturday from 8:00 to 4:30 pm. and is open to the public. Dan reminisced with Edie about old times, county fairs, and then talked about their more recent endeavors.
Of seasonal interest, Dan is offering an old-fashioned Christmas Wreath making workshop; there are public workshops at the nursery, and for groups of about 10 or more, Dan will do a private class -- either at the nursery, or wherever the party is. Materials and instructions are included, and participants will leave with a hand made wreath.
