Inside the Greenhouse..........



Come visit the beautiful blooms of the Monterey Bay!  Ever wonder what beauty lies behind the glass in a greenhouse?  Now’s your chance during the 4th Annual Monterey Bay Greenhouse Growers Open House on June 15th 2013!  There will be an array of flowers, herbs, and plants to see ranging from orchids and roses to gerberas, succulents, edible herbs and more while touring these Monterey Bay farms.  Enjoy these guided tours with the growers themselves as you learn about growing CA GROWN flowers, herbs, and plants for commercial purposes.  Information will include several areas such as propagation, fertilizing, pest control, harvesting, etc.  We recommend you wear comfortable shoes and layered clothing as many of these tours will involve walking through greenhouses or growing areas and vary in temperatures.  This event is FREE and open to the public thanks to our sponsors.
The map is available by clicking on the link to the right!  There is no specific start point for the tour and no reservations are necessary.  Just pick to start at any of the participating nurseries and go!  We also have a couple of locations with food and beverages available and a few special presentations- Rain or Shine!!  This one-day event provides you the opportunity to come out to the farm and learn first hand why California Flowers are America’s Flowers! Come and enjoy this day of fun with your entire family!
Please call (831) 274-4008 or email tours@montereybayfarmtours.org for the most up to date information about the tours.
