The Regional Parks Botanic Garden was founded on January 1, 1940. Situated in Tilden Regional Park's beautiful Wildcat Canyon in the heart of the north Berkeley Hills, the Regional Parks Botanic Garden is devoted to the collection, growth, display, and preservation of the native plants of California. The state is a vast region of many clearly defined floral areas, such as seacoast bluffs and coastal mountains, interior valleys, arid foothills, alpine zones, and two kinds of desert. California embraces nearly 160,000 square miles - imagine 160,000 square miles of California set in a 10-acre garden that can be walked in a day. The public is most welcome in this garden, which is open between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. every day except New Year's Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.
