What You’ll Learn

10 a.m. - Walking Tour of the Garden: Take a morning stroll through the Glendale Xeriscape Demonstration Garden with Glendale Water Conservation staff.  We'll take a close-up look at some of the unique adaptations that enable desert plants to survive in arid climates.  Participants are encouraged to wear close-toed shoes during the walking tour, which will cover approximately 1/4-mile of the garden's pathways.
