Sponsorships
The Monterey Bay Master Gardeners contacted selected local government agencies and garden-related businesses to invite their support of the Smart Gardening Faire. In all cases, our emphasis was on sponsorships or partnerships in the pursuit of common goals. We defined three levels of sponsorship in terms of categories that are widely used: Bronze ($100 – 499), Silver ($500 -999) and Gold ($1,000 and more.
