Mission Statement
The California Nursery Historical Park in Fremont provides many exciting opportunities for volunteers. Do you like to garden? We have a rose garden, cactus garden, a shade garden, and flower gardens. Do you like history? Our park is located on a portion of a 150-year old historic nursery that was instrumental in providing plants to a growing California. Do you need volunteer hours for school? There are many projects going on that you can be a part of. Do you like being with others who like plants?
Description
The California Nursery Garden Club members are people who enjoy and volunteer in our historic park. The gardens are maintained by volunteers who enjoy working in the rose garden, cactus garden, historic shade garden, historic trees, and flower gardens. Volunteers garden in the historic gardens that were formed in 1907 and 1934. Classes and tours take advantage of the plants and animals that reside here.
We work with the Math Science Nucleus and with the City of Fremont.
