On yet another gray and chilly morning, Daytrippers enjoyed the unique experience of exploring the home and gardens of Sheila and Jimmy Peterson.

The January T&T kick-started 2025 with an enthusiastic and curious crowd of 34 day-trippers touring The Ecology Center in San Juan Capistrano.

On a warm and beautiful October day, thirteen club members had an excellent time perusing and shopping five distinctly different nurseries in norther San Diego County.

We opened the garden club year with a local Trip & Tour destination where Garden Club day trippers channeled mountain goats as we toured the terraced grounds and home of Hortense Miller.

The 34th annual Southern California Spring Garden Show at South Coast Plaza was our last Trip and Tour of the garden club year. A small group of us gathered on April 25 to marvel and draw inspiration from the Fleurs de Villes exhibit of mannequins dressed in lavish, fresh floral ensembles.

On the first official day of spring, twenty members toured The Huntington Library, Art Museum and Botanical Gardens in San Marino. A warm welcome to Bonnie and Pat, our brand new members who joined our T&T! Click on the title or the photo to learn more.
