Join Sonoma Ecology Center’s Earthlings Club for fun in the garden to celebrate Halloween and Día de los Muertos! Let’s enjoy the fun and learning to be had in honoring both of these special holidays and their traditions. Outdoors and Covid safe, this event will be masked and organized for small groups to safely participate in activities. The Earthlings will provide autumn art, science projects, and gardening opportunities as well as a space for creating Día de Los Muertos ofrendas. If you would like to build an altar for someone special who has passed on, we welcome you to bring a few objects to create a memorable spot. 

Families are welcome to bring their own picnic to enjoy in the garden after the event.  

Costumes are optional, but clothes for being active are encouraged.

Sonoma Garden Park was protected by Ag + Open Space in November of 2011 for recreation and preservation of its natural resources and learning classroom environment for agriculture field trips for nearby elementary schools through Sonoma Ecology Center’s “Growing Discovery” program. The 6-acre property, hidden in eastern Sonoma, is an incredible public park and working garden site in Sonoma Valley, containing a wide array of habitats alongside sustainably designed systems for both agriculture use and landscaping purposes.

There is no charge for this outing, which is made possible by the voters of Sonoma County who fund the work of  Ag + Open Space with a quarter-cent sales tax.
