Enjoy a behind-the-scenes, self-guided tour of a diverse selection of the Mendocino Coast’s most magnificent private gardens – situated from Caspar to north of Fort Bragg.

This year’s accompanying activities include a special Opening Night Gala at a spectacular private coastal home, June 28, 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Wine and hors d’oeuvres will be served amid a backdrop of live music.

On Garden Tour day, savor a gourmet box lunch, featuring three options, prepared by Ravens Restaurant at The Stanford Inn by the Sea. A portion of the proceeds benefits the Mendocino Art Center.

9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., browse a Garden Shop & Plant Sale, at the Mendocino Art Center, with an array of plants and creative handcrafted garden art, set amidst the Art Center’s own beautiful grounds. In addition, the “Members’ Juried Garden-Themed Exhibit” will be showing through June 29.

The Garden Tour is the Art Center’s largest annual fundraiser.
