Saturday, April 26, 10 am to 4 pm

Enjoy a delightful California day touring some of Ventura’s most fascinating gardens—six locales ranging from a contemporary garden, to an enchanting tropical garden. Want to be water-wiser? Interested in Australian plants? Have a difficult hillside garden? Many of the homes will also host educational talks and demonstrations. As a special treat, an artist will be painting in one of the gardens, and in another garden, brunch/lunch will be available, while you shop among over forty garden-themed raffle items. Raffle tickets can be purchased at any of the six homes. Sneak peek of the raffle items…

After Party from 4 pm to 7 pm

Bring this day to a close with a click of your ruby slippers in an historic 1930’s home. Our Oz-themed After Party will be the talk of the town. Choice auction items from both a silent and live auction include a hand-built raised wooden garden planter, a brunch and harbor tour for six aboard a private boat, a sumptuous dinner at a hillside residence with Master Chef Tim Kilcoyne, a week at a Sedona condo and a three day weekend on Balboa Island. More auction items…

Admission for all six gardens and the After Party is $80. Separately, Garden Tour tickets are $30, and After Party tickets are $55.

Purchase your discount tickets online here or at the Pacific View Mall, downtown at Palermo, Danny’s Deli on Telegraph, Green Thumb on Victoria and Pacific Oaks Federal Credit Union (check pacificoaksfcu.org for locations).
