2024 CNPS San Diego Native Garden Tour


2024 CNPS San Diego Native Garden Tour

IT IS OUR 10TH ANNIVERSARY!

Join us in celebrating the beauty and diversity of San Diego’s native gardens. You will enjoy exploring a vibrant palette of landscape designs in Poway, La Jolla, Del Mar, and Solana Beach, each garden teeming with native plants and the wildlife they attract.

Our 2024 theme is 'Planting Animals,' highlighting the ties between native plants and the animals that rely on them. Planting California natives is the starting point for the web of life connected to our gardens. This includes us too!

This year, we feature the gardens of three visionaries: Dennis and Pamela Mudd in Poway and Jim Smith in Del Mar. Together, they created Calscape, a must-have online tool for the home gardener. Their designs embody Calscape’s mission: 'To restore nature - one garden at a time.'

The 10th Anniversary San Diego Native Garden Tour is a celebration of beautiful landscapes and all the life that depends on them. As gardeners and lovers of native plants, we’ve been given an opportunity to help nature thrive. Let the beauty of San Diego's native plant gardens inspire you to strengthen your relationship with the natural world.
