Descanso Gardens Tour

Sunday, April 3, 2011, 11:30 a.m.

Descanso Gardens
1418 Descanso Drive, La Cañada Flintridge

Descanso Gardens will be in full bloom on April 3 for a guided tour led by Descanso's Native Horticulturalist Rachel Young '01.  Rachel's tour will focus on organic, sustainable gardening, and will cover the entire garden.  An optional tram tour of the garden is also available for those who would prefer not to walk.  Space is limited for both tours, so sign up quickly!   For those who would prefer to just explore on their own, that's fine too.  Bring your lunch and meet us at the picnic tables outside the main entrance to the gardens at 11:30 a.m.  Rachel's tour will begin after lunch, and the optional tram will depart at 2 p.m.

Cost:  $8 admission fee to the gardens, $2 for the tour (supports Descanso Gardens).  [The entrance fee to the gardens is $8 (free for members, of course), and we'd just collect $2 for the tour at the event.]

To reserve a spot for any of the tours, contact Josh Young '01.  If you have questions, contact the Alumni Relations Office at 800-729-2586 or alumni-office@carleton.edu
