Back to the Bone Botanical
Garden Open Days
Back to the Bone Botanical Garden at Watsonville will be open to
the public on the weekend of the 19th and 20th of August.
The garden was founded in response to conditions resulting from
the approaching peak in the Earth’s climatic cycle, as well as to the
loss of prime farmland to short term profit. In times of exponentially
increasing population, the ability to provide for the resultant
demand is decreasing. Many will be forced to less-productive
land for survival. Back to the Bone attempts to demonstrate the
subsistence potential of this poorer, drier country.
In a 20-year program focused on soil-building, improved moisture-
retention, and better irrigation efficiency a sustainable microcosm
is being created for future generations. Ultimately the naturally-
selected plant successions self-seeding into constantly-improving
biotic conditions will prevail, with new species being added as
conditions permit.

escape the bleak winter weather for a picnic in the sunny gardens
over the range.
