Cocoa in the Gardens with Santa
The Cochise County Master Gardeners present Cocoa in the Gardens with Santa!
It’s time again for Cocoa in the Gardens with Santa! On Monday December 19th, from 5:30 to 7:30, check out this free family event. Presented as a way to stop and relax and a moment to enjoy the beauty of the season, the Cochise County Master Gardeners will host this community holiday tradition in the Discovery Gardens located on the University of Arizona Sierra Vista Campus.

Follow either entrance to the bottom of the ‘U’; you can’t miss the beautifully lit Discovery Gardens.
THE COCHISE COUNTY MASTER GARDENERS
The Cochise County Cooperative Extension Master Gardener Program has been an active part of the University of Arizona Sierra Vista Campus and the Cochise County community for decades, with Jan Groth at the helm. This is one of many ways they give back to our community.
