The garden connects and engages guest with California flora through sensational displays of seasonal wildflowers, ecosystem themed trails that walk across California from desert to redwoods, and gardens that celebrate taxonomic diversity of Dudleya and Manzanita. Newer interpretation themed gardens also model sustainability themes within the Home Demonstration Garden and Native Pollinator Garden. The Horticulture team also manages two plant nurseries, one retail sales to the public and the other that supports the regeneration of the living collection. 792910 584296 The Conservation and Research Program tackles today's complex conservation challenges at all levels: from genes, to individuals, populations, communities, and ecosystems. Garden scientists work collaboratively to identify and implement strategies for understanding, protecting, and restoring California's diverse botanic ecosystems. The Conservation and Research team works to produce essential regional plant inventories and research, safeguard endangered plant species, and secure conservation collections of seeds, living plants, and genetic tissue for study and potential recovery in the event of disaster. They examine the beneficial role native plants play in supporting pollination and pest control for healthier and more productive food crops and wildlands, and work to find the most efficient and effective means to restore entire ecosystems. 457645 58077 The Educational Program supports the Garden's conservation mission by inspiring active stewardship of native plants & the environments that depend on them. The Garden grounds provide a unique outdoor classroom whose diverse collections of native plants support a wide array of experiences in nature. Our educational programs develop an environmentally literate & engaged public through on-site classes, lectures, travel, & docent-led public & school tours. Garden school tours increase the eco-literacy of students and chaperones by asking them to observe, record, and predict natural phenomena. These popular tours are designed to align with the California Common Core State Standards, California Environmental Education Initiative & Next Generation Science Standards. Similarly, the Garden's lifelong learning and interpretive programs encourage exploration, discovery, and stewardship of California's native plants and habitats for future generations both on site in the Garden and in the habitats we work to conserve. 241671 429853 3188852 true true false false false false false true false true true false false true false true true false false false false false false true true false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true 56 0 true 68 true true true false false false false true true false 0 false false false false false false false false false false false false X 16 16 false false false false false false false true false false false true true true true true true true true false CA X X X Diana Pereira 8056824726 1212 MISSION CANYON SANTA BARBARA CA 93105 X Peter Schuyler Chairman 3.75 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Tom Craveiro VICE CHAIRMAN 2.75 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Edward Roach Treasurer 2.75 0.00 X X 0 0 0 John Parke Secretary 2.75 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Samantha Davis Trustee 2.75 0.00 X 0 0 0 Lou Greer Frost Trustee 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Gil Garcia Trustee 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Elaine M Gibson Trustee 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Sarah Berkus Gower Trustee 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Valerie Hoffman Trustee 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 William Murdoch Trustee 2.75 0.00 X 0 0 0 Gerry Rubin Trustee 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kathy J Scroggs Trustee 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jesse Smith Trustee 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Susan Spector Trustee 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Susan Van Atta Trustee 1.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Windhager Steven Executive Director 40.00 0.00 X 163100 0 12129 163100 12129 1 false true false 0 2154689 53966 2154689 ADMISSIONS 507094 507094 CONTRACTS 584296 584296 EDUCATION PROGRAMS 58077 58077 Membership Dues & Assessments 248593 248593 1398060 380103 380103 0 0 110179 110179 110179 110179 2452545 2319016 133529 133529 133529 89020 64261 24759 24759 0 429853 239379 190474 -2609 193083 OTHER 44504 44504 44504 4436297 1686272 -2609 597945 0 0 0 0 175229 43807 87615 43807 0 1954656 1403921 279511 271224 54784 40251 7522 7011 265015 184997 37892 42126 170970 125655 19276 26039 0 0 20160 20160 0 21229 21229 104644 104644 318646 232758 64695 21193 37879 25149 7938 4792 244726 131047 103561 10118 0 0 184893 181701 3192 30717 23667 6328 722 0 27676 9342 16183 2151 133134 133134 0 643122 584678 58444 281809 187100 59062 35647 Publications 39354 784 661 37909 CLASSES TOURS AND EVENTS 15448 13995 1453 0 4724091 3188852 1011271 523968 4550 135240 131574 311748 330377 121993 55435 124121 0 0 0 82548 81464 106086 116134 26841205 3968161 23084365 22873044 13843687 13100356 10854 3000 0 0 4037713 3098289 41687189 39965389 663078 567729 62265 71460 3372099 3378567 4097442 4017756 X 30018868 28527529 2803853 2277749 4767026 5142355 37589747 35947633 41687189 39965389 X -287794 -1407963 165108 -111465 X false true X true false X 3945939 1902162 1698856 2634338 2154689 12335984 0 0 3945939 1902162 1698856 2634338 2154689 12335984 7087242 5248742 131061 100560 343971 222550 380103 1178245 29885 -12448 -15149 -24939 -2609 -25260 112 109 3456 403 44504 48584 13537553 5199747 0.38770 0.85230 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false 8267436 500420 442 45000 8723298 6437854 1314798 1166101 651317 8267436 6342614 5828 335184 245772 6437854 5884859 726500 -22473 246272 6342614 5888149 287429 290719 -20961 0.42000 0.46000 0.12000 false false false 6403458 6403458 18547167 2862953 15684214 1316029 635592 680437 574551 469616 104935 22873044 Accrued Interest Receivable 4837 CASH HELD ST FOR LONG-TERM USE CHARITABLE REMAINDER TRUSTS 295447 COLLECTIONS 118275 Interest in life Insurance Policies 172962 INTEREST IN PERPETUAL TRUSTS 1114403 WORK IN PROCESS 1392365 3098289 X 2817771 -1407963 5546 -111465 -1513882 4331653 104644 104644 4436297 4624993 5546 5546 4619447 104644 104644 4724091 Part III, Line 1a: If organization elected under SFAS 116 to not report are, historical treasures, o Inexhaustible Collections The Garden has elected not to capitalize donated botanical collections nor does the Garden recognize these contributions as revenues or gains.
