The Water Conservation Garden makes El Cajon landscaping feel practical
The Water Conservation Garden near El Cajon has nearly six acres of displays, native plants, irrigation examples, mulch exhibits, classes, and visit information.
The Water Conservation Garden is a very California kind of local stop. It makes dry-climate landscaping feel practical instead of abstract.
The garden has nearly six acres of displays. They focus on water conservation and careful use of natural resources. Visitors can see themed gardens, native plants, a vegetable garden, mulch examples, and irrigation displays. A native butterfly pavilion opens seasonally.
This is useful for yard ideas as well as a walk. If you are thinking about rebates, classes, or lower-water planting, start with the visit page. Then check the current workshop list.
