El Cajon, CA The Water Conservation Garden

March 7-8 (Friday/Saturday), 2025

We look forward to returning to the highly respected (and uber-relevant) Water Conservation Garden in El Cajon for our southernmost event of the ’24 season!

We’ll add TOMATOMANIA! to their landscape for a 2- day sale and will showcase 75-80 varieties of your favorite summer treat.

The event will look a little different again this year, as our friends at the Garden will take center stage as they join us in this PARTNER EVENT. We’re thrilled about that. Garden staff and docents will handle all event needs and on this weekend you won’t find many modern hybrid tomatoes in the mix. (We’ll be Early Girl free) We’re going crazy with rare new finds, amazing heirlooms and noted classics.

Six acres of exemplary native and drought tolerant plantings (plus educational features that make this like the best hort class ever) show Southern Californians that gardening and water conservation can still go hand in hand and how that should be done in the reclaimed desert we call home.

Expect some fertilizer and other extras that will help you get the most out of the garden!

Have a great season in the tomato garden.
