Welcome to the Berkeley Urban Oasis, where the cityscape seamlessly merges with a haven of tranquility. This unique garden beckons with its defining features—a charming small seating area atop a dry stacked stone patio, ideal for leisurely tea sessions, and a shaded dining space offering a picturesque view of the seed fountain. The modern stone path winds through the shady urban oasis, intentionally landscaped to attract birds. As you explore, encounter the central lemon tree surrounded by a vibrant mix of flowering perennials, edibles, and a walkable butterfly meadow, creating a harmonious blend of nature and urban living.

Open Days 2024:  Saturday, October 19
Hours: Three Sessions: 10–12, 12–2, 2–4
