UCSC Arboretum Gift & Wreath Sale Fundraiser
Discover one-of-a-kind, handcrafted botanical gifts and festive holiday decor unlike anything else in Santa Cruz! Get ready to be inspired! For months, local Arboretum artisans have been hard at work handcrafting fantastic succulent arrangements, dried-flower wreaths, and botanical art pieces for this special seasonal fundraiser. Every creation is entirely unique and this is the only collection you will find that draws from the Arboretum’s extraordinary and world-renowned living collections. Find holiday treasures and unforgettable gifts for everyone on your list! In addition to beautiful living centerpieces and handcrafted wreaths made with unusual foliage and blooms, shop an incredible variety of succulent creations and tillandsia driftwood displays, lush terrariums, custom woodcrafts by local artisans, eye-catching dish gardens, and so much more. Arboretum members enjoy early access and can join us to shop from 9 - 10am. We will be happy to sign up new members just before 9am or join now at: https://arboretum.ucsc.edu/get-involved/join-us/. Support the Arboretum! For 60+ years, the gardens have been a treasured sanctuary on the Central Coast, inspiring stewardship of global biodiversity through research, education, and the conservation of rare, endangered, and extraordinary plants.
