SDBG is a 37-acre urban oasis located in Encinitas, California, just north of San Diego. We garden to create, share and apply plant wisdom in our world. The Garden’s four miles of trails display 5,000 plant species and varieties, including 300 plants for which SDBG is the only garden maintaining a population. SDBG has 15 gardens that represent  regions of the world, 12 demonstration gardens, and the largest bamboo collection in North America.

San Diego Botanic Garden (SDBG) has three children’s gardens:

  • Hamilton Children’s Garden – the largest kids’ garden on the west coast – home to Toni’s Tree House, the Incredible Edibles garden, a mountain stream, a Bird and Butterfly garden; and many more discovery areas;
  • Seeds of Wonder, a magical garden space for early learners that includes model trains; and
  • Junior Quail Trail – an immersive area to explore and play outdoors – using interactive elements to blend physical challenges with observations of the natural world.

From 10 am to noon on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, kids can participate in activities through the SAPLinGS (Science, Art and PLay in Garden Spaces) program. A copy of the Garden’s scavenger hunt is always available at admissions for kids and adults, alike!
