Curious about the hidden medicine growing all around us?
Join herbalist and naturalist Angelina Keselburg for a fun and fascinating introduction to California native plants at City Farmers Nursery.
Learn more here: @Angelina_keselburg
We’ll begin in the nursery getting to know several native plants up close — learning how to recognize them, exploring their traditional medicinal uses, and uncovering fun ethnobotanical stories and ecological connections.
Then we’ll take a short stroll across the parking lot to Rose Canyon Open Space Park to see these same plants growing wild in their natural habitat.
Along the way you’ll pick up plant ID tips, medicinal insights, and a deeper appreciation for the native plants that shape our local landscape.
Please bring:
• Sturdy closed-toe shoes
• Water
• A notebook and pen if you’d like to take notes
Note: We won’t be walking far on the trail, but it is unpaved.
Come discover the stories, ecology, and medicine of the plants growing right here in San Diego.
🚜 Since 1972, we've focused on simple growing methods, time-tested advice, and locally-grown plants.
☀️ We'd love to invite you down to our open-air canyon classroom for casual learning, informed by over 50 years of experience.
🦆 Free to attend, no RSVP required.
🕰️ Class times can change or shift, we recommend you check our website for the most up-to-date (cityfarmersnursery.com/events).
🚙 IMPORTANT Parking Notice for Class Participants
If you're attending a free class and are able to walk a short distance (of 1 block), please consider parking on Altadena Ave and walking over. This keeps our lot available and flowing for customers shopping at our three businesses who may be on tight schedules. We greatly appreciate your spirit of generosity when it comes to our shared space.
🙏 When classes fill up, a full parking lot can prevent other shoppers from visiting our stores. By parking on the street, you help ensure everyone can access our businesses and our neighbors continue to thrive. As our classes gain in popularity, we want to continue to welcome you, but it needs to be a “win” for everyone. Street parking is one way you can make that possible.
📦 Planning to shop? No worries! You can easily swing back through our "Loading Zone" after class for convenient drive-up loading of bulky purchases—no parking required.
