Garden Plot
Rainwater Demonstration Garden
Enjoy picnic tables located in the Barrio Garden and the Hummingbird/Butterfly Garden. Reserve ramadas for events. Look for tile mosaic and metal art at the shade structure near the Barrio Garden. Stroll through the community garden to see what grows in cool season weather versus warm season weather. Discover native plants located throughout the park and watch grasses in the grasslands and the wind sculpture provide motion during a breeze. Find carins among the cactus. Desert wildflowers change with the seasons — look for the flagstone sculpture in this area. Purchase a lock to memorialize someone you love on the memorial fence.
