2025 CVAS Bird-friendly Garden Tour

Our tour will feature yards which provide habitat for our native birds and demonstrate the use of drought tolerant California native plants in the landscape.  This year the gardens will be located in Ventura.  Hosts will be on site to answer questions.   The tour is free of charge.

CVAS has a mission to make the public aware of the importance and beauty of birds, natural habitats, native plants and wildlife.   At a time when bird populations are in decline due in large part to loss of habitat, we are dedicated toward promoting the creation of viable habitat for both local and migratory birds in our area. Our Bird-Friendly Garden Tours serve to educate and promote awareness about the importance of California native plants in supporting our bird populations, because native plants support the native bugs that birds feed to their babies. We encourage you to spread the word and bring your friends!
