Thinking Safe and Green Notes
UC Master Gardener Thinking Safe and Green Notes are one-page summaries of information to help volunteers and coordinators stay healthy and safe and protect the environment while working in the garden. Notes are developed by UC ANR EH&S, with input and review from the statewide UC Master Gardener staff.

The
UC Master Gardener Safety Manual provides guidance for volunteers on best practices to reduce the risk of injury or illness during UC Master Gardener-sponsored activities.
