Regional Parks Botanic Garden (Tilden Park)

Leader: Sonja Raub

Date: Saturday, February 28, 9-11am

Description: The Regional Parks Botanic Garden in Tilden Park, which opened in 1940, is a 10-acre gem devoted to the preservation of the native plants of California. It’s also a great place to go birding, and over 150 species have been seen there. A Botanic Garden docent will accompany us on the walk. We may stop to view birds, flowers, mammals, insects, and other critters. The trails are a mixture of paved, gravel, and dirt, and include both uphill and downhill sections, some with steps and many without handrails. Restrooms and water fountain are located in the parking lot outside the garden. Heavy rain cancels. More on the Botanic Garden at nativeplants.org

Limit: 10 Participants Max

Directions: Meet at Regional Parks Botanic Garden, 1550 Wildcat Canyon Rd, Berkeley.
