About
Join us at the Laguna Environmental Center (LEC) during the Eco-Friendly Garden Tour, a county-wide celebration of water-wise, sustainable landscapes. Explore our native plant demonstration gardens, where low-water landscaping supports pollinators, wildlife, and healthy ecosystems while providing ideas for your own garden.
Enjoy self-guided strolls through the gardens, guided garden walks at 11:00am and 1:00pm (also offered in Spanish). Visit Heron Hall to view the latest art exhibit featuring works by Megan Gnekow of Seven Ravens Studio, and enjoy family-friendly activities like nature crafts, a plant and wildlife scavenger hunt, and nature-inspired gifts in our shop.
Visitors can also meet local conservation experts and partner organizations, including Sonoma County Ag + Open Space, California Native Plant Society - Milo Baker Chapter, Santa Rosa Plain Groundwater Sustainability Agency, UC Master Gardeners, Our Water Our World and The Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation.
The LEC is protected by a conservation easement, a legal agreement that limits development and ensures the property will continue to preserve its natural and educational values for the community and wildlife. There is no charge for this event, made possible by the taxpayers of Sonoma County through a quarter-cent sales tax funding Ag + Open Space.
Our garden will close at 2:00pm, though the Eco-Friendly Garden Tour continues county-wide until 4:00pm. We encourage visitors to arrive early.
