SACRAMENTO REGION, CA (MPG) – Taking place from 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. April 18 and 19, the Gardens Got Natives tour is a free-self guided event featuring forty plus California native plant home, business and school gardens in the Sacramento region.

Not only does the event have a new name this year but the tour has been increased to two days. The tour brochure will be color coded to help navigate the new two-day format. 

The tour gardens are comprised predominantly of California native plants in the urban landscape. These gardens feature a variety of ways in which native plants can flourish in a garden. Some are professionally designed while others are more functional and are a mix use of natives, food production and living spaces.

You will find delightful and sustainable gardens that harness water, create habitats and add a sense of place. All native plants in the gardens will be labeled with a plant list available in the tour brochure. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask garden hosts about their choices and challenges. This event is open and free to all. After registration you will receive the map and tour brochure information the week before the tour begins.

California Native Plant Society Sacramento Chapter will again have several vendors out at the gardens selling plants including Mother Natives,  Find Out Farms, Miridae Mobile Nursery and a discount available at The Plant Foundry. Details of locations will be posted as that information becomes available.
