Field Trip to Theodore Payne Foundation

Directions to the Theodore Payne Foundation

If you’ve never been, allow yourself some time, getting here can be a bit of a challenge. It’s not like you’re trying to find the Mall of America; this is a little place down at the end of a dirt road. Literally!

We will meet in the Foundation Parking lot at 9:00 AM – if anyone wants to carpool, RSVP and I’ll meet you in The Learning Garden parking area at 8:00. Otherwise, without an RSVP, I'll just meet everyone at TPF.

Dress comfortably for walking (the nursery is on a hill and there is a fair amount of walking), and for whatever the weather should be. This is out in Sunland, the far east end of the San Fernando Valley, and can be hotter than hell and colder than Hades by turns.

I don’t know as you’ll need them, but it might be best if you brought your pruners for doing cuttings.

And, as always, I'll be on my cell.
