Earth Day at Alta Vista Botanical Gardens

Earth Day Festival is a family friendly free event at the Alta Vista Botanical Gardens. Celebrate our Earth with a day outdoors in Vista’s beautiful 14-acre Botanical Gardens!
Connect with nature and go GREEN at this FREE fun event with activities for the kiddos, live music, our GrowGetters plant and pottery sale, food for sale, and vendors.
Children will make recycled art, handle worms and compost, create wearable wreaths, paint "Earth Day Rocks!" and a visit the fun-filled Children’s Garden.  How about a scavenger hunt while you explore the Gardens?  How about squeezing lemons to make your own fresh lemonade?
Enjoy music by Vic Moraga on guitar and a variety show of Kids’ College performances. Experience our nine Ricardo Breceda sculptures, starting with the slithering Serpent by Ricardo Breceda for the children.
Our Plant and Pottery Sale includes natives, flowers, veggies, rare plants, and gardening advice. 
Check out our Garden Shop filled with crafts, snacks, plants, and Garden treats for all.
Take a break and buy a tasty BBQ lunch and beverages from Amigos de Vista Lions. 
Vendors will line the driveway and offer environmentally friendly information as well as tasty treats, jewelry, home décor, and home care solutions. 
Vendors application is on the website; join us for a fun community day!
