Get ready - Gala! Join us for our most exciting annual fundraiser on Saturday, July 24th, 5:30 pm, at the Clovis Memorial Building. This year's theme: "Celebrating a Taste of Clovis" Goes Native! We celebrate California native plants and recognize the Native Americans who first appreciated them. Join the fun - music by Acoustic Highway, Native American craft demonstrations from the Mono Museum, wine tasting from local wineries, buffet dinner prepared and served by International Institute's Culinary Division, both live and silent auctions featuring garden delights and travel, and a chance to enjoy yourself with friends old and new as you learn a bit more about future Garden activities. By attending you will also help support the Garden's development and educational programs. Table sponsorships for a table of eight are available at $600 and up; individual tickets are $75 per guest. For more information call 222-7366 or 299-9633.
The Clovis Botanical Garden, a water-wise demonstration garden, provides a beautiful acre of plants and landscapes appropriate for the hot summers and cool winters of California's Central Valley. It is on land owned by the City of Clovis, bordered by a bike trail and the new Dry Creek Park. Come enjoy it with family and friends! See the Events listing on this page for special talks, tours, and more.
The Garden is a registered nonprofit group managed and developed by volunteers for the benefit of the community. Admission is free. Newly expanded hours: Wednesday through Sunday, 9:00am - 4:00pm.
Our goal: to become the premier regional garden for demonstrating wise water use in Valley landscapes.
Our mission: to promote water conservation in the Central Valley by developing gardens, programs, and exhibits to inspire and educate the public.
Our future: planning to add 3 more acres of attractive trees, shrubs and perennials that thrive in our Mediterranean climate, as well as examples of landscaping materials, irrigation exhibits, and a LEED "green" visitor center and education complex. |
