Natural History Wanderings

Rains at TPF have been bountiful, with over 4 inches falling during the past storm cycle, and more forecasted in the next 48 hours.

All of the runoff has caused significant damage to our driveway, access road and demonstration garden along with a few trees down. Over three feet of sediment have swept over a swath of our demonstration garden (our Director of Horticulture Tim pointed out that it’s a perfect example of an alluvial fan…).

Nature is powerful! In order to make sure everything is cleaned up and safe for visitors we’ll be closing the nursery Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. We apologize for the inconvenience!
