The Living Watershed: Gardening with Riparian Plants

Join The Garden in celebrating Santa Barbara Creek Week by exploring the beauty and ecological importance of California’s riparian landscapes and learning how to bring their benefits into your own garden. In this class, you’ll discover native riparian plants that thrive in rain gardens, dry creek beds, and water-harvesting landscapes. Learn how these remarkable plants help slow, spread, and soak in rainwater, support wildlife, and build resilient gardens that work in harmony with the local watersheds.
