Fourth Annual Cambria Wildflower Show
Saturday, April 26, 2008 noon - 5 p.m.
Sunday, April 27, 2008 10a.m. - 5 p.m.
Have you ever wondered about the wildflowers, shrubs and trees you see flowering on your spring walks
and drives in the areas around Cambria? Do you have questions about what makes a wildflower a native or an alien?
If you have, you can have your wildflower questions answered at the fourth annual Cambria Wildflower Show,
presented by Friends of the Fiscalini Ranch Preserve. It will be held on Saturday April 26, from noon to 5 p.m.
and Sunday, April 27, from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. at the Cambria Veterans Memorial Building on Main Street.
You can come see a display of fresh wildflowers collected from the Monterey County line to the Morro Bay Estuary
and from the coastal bluffs to the ridge of the Santa Lucia Mountains.
The flowers fill the Vet’s Hall! Each flower sample will be labeled with its botanical name and family, along
with its common name. The purpose of the show is to enhance the enjoyment and knowledge of wildflowers
by identifying them and seeing hundreds of them, all under one roof. The show will be free to students of all ages,
but we will be asking others for a $2 donation at the door to help cover the printing costs. A bibliography will be
provided to everyone attending. This will be a valuable aid to those who would like to continue investigating the
wildflowers they see at the show and in nature. A species of over 400 different plants , wildflower books and seeds
will be available for purchase at the show.
For more information on these and other Friends of the Fiscalini Ranch Preserve events please call Jo Ellen Butler at 927-2856.
