Sandy from the Conejo Valley Botanic Garden has sent out an invitation to the Matilija Poppy Festival on May 2, 2010. The Conejo Valley Botanic Gardens are 33 acres of unique terrain in Thousand Oaks offering panoramic views of the Conejo Valley and abundant opportunities for education, conservation and recreation.
While a significant portion of the Garden’s acreage is reserved to provide a natural habitat for birds and small animals, the developed area of the Garden includes displays of water-conserving plants from California, the Mediterranean, and Australia as well as several specialty gardens.
The event will provide activities for children, garden tours, and introduction to the ‘California All-Stars’, a selection of worthy but under-utilized native plants – all star performers.
This event will be held at the gardens. For information on the event, the garden, and directions, please visit the Conejo Valley Botanic Gardens website.
