About the Event

Add to the beauty of your yard with California native plants or succulents. Master Gardeners will also answer questions about these plants for you.

Native Plants: Learn more about beautiful California native plants for your yard. This is an opportunity to ask questions about California Native plants for your yard and purchase plants. You can lower your water bill by planting native California plants. They also attract pollinators such as butterflies.

Succulents: The perfect time to pick up your summer succulents to beautify your yard, patio, or home. Plants start at only $5.

Garlic and Shallots: Ready to plant sets. Instructions included. So much fun to grow your own!

Please note:

  • Attendees are encouraged to wear closed-toed shoes; the garden paths are not paved.
  • The park charges $6.00 for parking, or park closer to our area on Chynoweth Avenue near Vauxhall Circle for free (parcel location in Google Maps).

Operated in partnership with the Santa Clara County Parks and Recreation Department.
