Stop by the Laguna Environmental Center for this special Saturday Open House celebrating the many joys of spring, with a focus on native plants and eco-friendly gardening. We will have fun and engaging activities for all ages. In addition to CNPS volunteers, our Laguna Guides will be on hand to show you around the native plant garden or give you a tour of historic Stone Farm.

Enjoy the Children’s Playscape. Look for Bald Eagles through the binoculars or watch nesting Bluebirds through the spotting scope.

It will be a great opportunity to see the new Heron Hall exhibit “Into the Fold” oil and acrylic paintings by Angela Zocco Sturr.

Bring a picnic lunch and enjoy the ever-changing views of the Laguna de Santa Rosa.

We are proud to offer this event in collaboration with our local partners. Take the self-guided “Eco-Friendly Garden Tour” provided by the Sonoma-Marin Saving Water Partnership, which showcases wildlife-friendly and water-saving plants for use in sustainable landscaping. Our friends with the Milo Baker Chapter of the California Native Plant Society will also be here selling native plants from 10:00am to 2:00pm. Buy a few to take home, thereby supporting our local California Native Plant Society chapter while nurturing local wildlife habitat in your own backyard!

Join us in Heron Hall at 2:30pm for a talk on “Native Plant Propagation” by Walter Earle, Nursery Manager at the Laguna Foundation and formally the owner of Mostly Natives nursery in Tomales.
