Conejo Valley Botanic Garden is located in Thousand Oaks, California, and consists of a peak with vista views along with 15 hillside botanical gardens. It provides a teaching laboratory for what flora works and what does not work in the Conejo Valley.[1]
The 33-acre (13-hectare) site consists of a vast variety of endemic plants, water-conserving plants, oak trees, and indigenous wildlife. A children's garden area was added in March 2003, known as Kids’ Adventure Garden.[2][3] Although the garden itself keeps open most days, Kids’ Adventure Garden and nursery plant sales are only open on certain days.[4] Admission to the garden is free.[5]
Although its main entrance is found at 400 West Gainsborough Road,[6][7] it is also accessible from Conejo Community Park, located at the intersection of Hendrix and Dover Avenues.[8][9][10]
The property was first acquired in 1973, while the first parts of the botanical gardens began to emerge in 1976.[11] It is operated by the nonprofit Conejo Valley Botanic Garden, Inc.[12] It lies across the street from Tarantula Hill, the highest point in Thousand Oaks.[13][14][15]
