The Garden can be a learning laboratory for the dedicated gardener, a delightful place for an afternoon stroll, or a place to gather lots of information about water-wise, or California-Friendly® gardening, while attending a fun family festival. The Garden is supported by water district dues, and by memberships, donations, grants, facility rentals, and gift shop sales.
