Ventura Botanical Gardens is based on a paradigm of community participating in the ecology of our surrounds. The gardens will convey the message that we are stewards of the land. They will work as a laboratory of experience, promoting sustainability and creating an appreciation of ecosystems. They will also engage with our neighbors in Ventura, providing community spaces and opportunities for education and volunteering. The gardens can showcase ancient plant knowledge and techniques as well as cutting edge technologies that allow people to coexist successful with nature.
