Casa Del Curandero supports this community endeavor to keep this wonderful sanctuary thriving for our community.


  Shinzen help sought
           Supporters of the Shinzen Japanese Garden in Fresno's Woodward Park are seeking the public's help to maintain the garden and raise funds for its upkeep.

Volunteers are asked to show up Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon to help weed, rake, dig, plant, sweep and water the garden. There is no city staff dedicated to maintaining the garden because of budget cuts.


For more information, contact Richard Kassabian at (559) 434-8880 or (559) 259-7404.

Also, the nonprofit Shinzen Garden Society will hold a fundraiser Saturday, Sept. 29 called "Moonlight in the Garden."

The event will run from 4:30 to 8:30 p.m. and include dinner, musical entertainment and a silent auction in the garden.

Information is available at www.shinzenjapanesegarden.org or by calling Tom Skelton at (559) 840-1264 or (559) 227-8940.
