This all started with my employment in 2011.
Thank you for anchoring in that “sense of place” for so long & your commitment to growing the finest selection of native plants in & for California.
Many pockets of the earth have been uplifted by them.
Fair winds,. Adios, familia. Saying goodbye to Tree of Life Nursery for the first time after working there for 7+ years was one of the hardest things I’ve done in my life. Saying goodbye forever feels ever more surreal. “We Grow” was the motto of the nursery. I didn’t realize at first how much this motto was true in the way this nursery grew a community, a revolution in horticulture, and the hearts & minds of all those who experienced this incredible place. The nursery allowed me to grow as a professional, a propagator, a horticulturist, scientist, and as a human. I will forever be grateful to Mike & Jeff, El Ramo, and the entire network of Tree of Life Nursery family and friends (past and present). I feel the DNA of TOLN lives on in us all. I definitely see that in the work and spirit of those influenced by this magical place. As in many cases before, we raise a tequila to the legend that is Tree of Life Nursery. ¡Salūd! #treeoflifenursery #californianativeplants #horticulture
Tomorrow we say, Adios! and thank you for 45 years of inspiration💚

Final days open:

Friday, May 1st
Saturday, May 2nd

Then it’s…
Adios, Amigos.

If you feel called to come by. This is your last opportunity to visit.
Before selecting plants, we must learn to read the land.

Join Mike Evans for a small-group walk through the Environmental Nature Center, exploring Southern California native plant communities in place.

Together, we’ll look at soil, slope, moisture, sun exposure, and plant relationships—learning how habitat shapes what grows, and how those patterns can guide more resilient native gardens at home.

This workshop is more walk than lecture, with the land itself as the classroom.

Saturday, May 2 | 10:00 AM
Instructor: Mike Evans

Presented in partnership with ENC + CNHF

As things warm up, the garden shifts.

Less about doing more
more about paying attention.

Watch the soil, water deeper,
and let the plants adjust in their own time.

Encelia californica is a part of our Southern California landscape. It brings nature back in and helps create pollinator pathways, supporting the life moving through our neighborhoods.

It’s more than just a beautiful plant. It helps reconnect people, place, and habitat.

One question I get often is how folks can volunteer with the seed library project. My answer has always been, “I’m trying to get my head around a volunteer day.” Until now, finding a regular time, space, and routine for volunteers has been challenging. It was Tree of Life’s generous seed and equipment donation that unlocked a new perspective for me. In February, Tree of Life closed down their 40+ year nursery in San Juan Capistrano and began transitioning parts of their practice into California Native Horticulture Foundation, a project that is about a year old but represents decades of knowledge and community building. As an offshoot of our partnership at Eaton Canyon, Mike asked if I might be interested in adopting and stewarding an antique seed cleaning machine, one that he’d received from S&S seeds decades ago after their own barn fire. I was over the moon about this, and eager to get it up and running. Mike said had a vision of the machine being used in community, of neighbors and friends testing it out, tinkering, learning, and fixing together.

In addition to the seed cleaning machine, Mike, Michelle, and their team donated several bins of seeds that have been collected over the years by their team, and stored in their earthen seed bank (the very same one that inspired the seed storage building that will be introduced at Eaton Canyon). These came right at a time when my own native seed supply was beginning to dwindle, and when I’m eager to support new library outposts with seed packets.

In short, this is a call for volunteers! Are you interested in helping clean and package these generous bulk seed donations so they can be distributed to library outposts? Do you have a penchant for tinkering with old machinery, and a curiosity to learn about vintage seed cleaning machines? Sign up to volunteer on my website, and while you’re at it, sign up for a membership with California Native Horticultural Foundation, or to receive their wonderful newsletter.
