Geary Street Gardens - CANCELED

In the heart of downtown San Francisco lives a secret garden behind twin historic buildings. These structures were erected in the early 1900s in the theater district and are three blocks from Union Square, on the dividing line between upper-class Nob Hill and the notorious Tenderloin districts. It is extremely urban; however, from the streets and sidewalks you are just a garden gate away from an amazing urban oasis. Sean Stout and James Pettigrew of Organic Mechanics have designed a lush habitat garden for frogs, fish, bees, butterflies, songbirds, hummingbirds, mourning doves, nesting robins, and more. Even hawks regularly visit, bathing in the mosaic water feature after eating their pigeon in the trees. The garden invites people with its soothing sound of water, many paths, and secret nooks. Recycled materials are used in fresh, creative ways in mosaic paths, unusual planters, and sculpture. Rare and unusual plants are featured in this can't-miss urban paradise. Organic Mechanics has won numerous awards, including the American Horticultural Society Environment Award and the prestigious Best in Show at the San Francisco Flower and Garden Show. They have appeared in many television programs, newspapers, and magazines. Their design/build firm is founded on organic and sustainable principles.

This garden's estimated size is 4,000 sq. feet.

This Open Day has been CANCELED at the Garden Host's request.
