Learn regenerative gardening by doing it yourself with other volunteers! Every final Saturday of the month from 9:00am to 12:00pm join us for a Weekend Projects volunteer event. Participation is free and getting dirt-ish in a beautiful garden is enjoyable. All events that are part of this final Saturday program are project-based rebuild projects--learn how to garden regeneratively with native and mediterranean climate plants by working on a specific rejuvenation or rebuild in the garden. Examples of possible projects include replanting a native plant walk subsumed by CA wild roses and weeds, redesigning garden "rooms" damaged by heat and improving their irrigation, prepping beds for wildflower sowing, joining a garden survey to catalogue the different species found in the garden 20 years after our founding.

Learn regenerative gardening by doing it yourself with other rad volunteers! Every second Saturday of the month from 9:00am to 12:00pm join us for a Weekend Projects volunteer project event! Participation is free and getting dirt-ish in a beautiful garden is quite  enjoyable! Most events are hands-on and skills based -- learn how to garden regeneratively with native and mediterranean climate plants by working in the soil, planting, landscaping, and learning to identify desirable plants and undesirable weeds! If you're looking to get outside, learn about our native ecosystems, battle weeds, get some exercise, or meet some new cool plant folks -- sign up now! 💚🌿

Resonance: A Yoga & Sound Journey is a monthly practice led by Pasadena-born yoga teacher (and musician) Qur’an Shaheed with a guest musician, on second Sundays of each month. The late morning/early afternoon session blends movement, breath, and live music outdoors to deepen the mind-body-nature connection. This immersive experience weaves together flowing asana, guided breathwork, and intuitive soundscapes, creating space for inner alignment and self-discovery. Rooted in both stillness and rhythm, each session invites you to tune in, release, and move in harmony with the present moment. Each month features a different musical collaborator.  Participation in yoga is optional, and if you just want to lay underneath the trees and listen that’s absolutely encouraged! Class is currently held in the lower garden underneath the pepper tree. Enter near the small footbridge close to Pasadena Avenue. These limited capacity monthly classes are now free of charge.
