Trinity Gardens, 909 N La Cumbre Road, Santa Barbara, CA93110

 $30.00

Take a tour of Trinity Gardens, a vibrant non-profit community garden nestled in the foothills of Santa Barbara. On this informative tour you will learn the best practices of organic gardening and the many benefits of composting and vermiculture. You’ll be guided past garden beds, through fruit orchards, and into the greenhouse all while learning about what makes Santa Barbara’s growing-climate so unique. The final stop on the tour will be the chicken coup where you’ll have the opportunity to feed the garden’s feathered friends. To cap off this visit, the Organic Soup Kitchen will provide scrumptious soups made with fresh, seasonal ingredients from the garden for your to enjoy. You will leave feeling inspired after learning about the wonderful partnership these two organizations have cultivated to promote healthy and sustainable living in the community. This is a family-friendly event and we encourage kids to join in on the fun!

A portion of the proceeds from the Taste of Santa Barbara will benefit the Santa Barbara Culinary Experience in partnership with The Julia Child Foundation for Gastronomy and the Culinary Arts.
