Tiny neighborhood garden. Pretty and well kept. Well worth a stop, sit and contemplate the day.read more

I never knew this existed until I had some dealings with the people that live right next door to…read morethis garden. If you live in Green Valley or Sahuarita, I recommend checking this small botanical garden out. It is small, but very comfortable. It is lovingly cared for every week by volunteers who are there for four hours. It features desert vegetation, some of which I now know of their names, thanks to the labelling of the plants. There is a couple of "snake cacti" that are named as such because they are growing and winding their way up tree trunks and branches. (See photos) There are nice paved paths throughout the garden. There are several nice benches in which to sit and enjoy the view. There are brochures that list all the plants in the garden. Pick one up from the dispenser just after the entrance. (See photo) It is a peaceful garden and a nice one in which to relax and chill. There is a parking lot across from the gate, which is open 24/7. 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Tucson-top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs!

My friend suggested this as an activity during our weekend, since Sahuarita is a short drive from…read moreTucson. Parking was surprisingly well directed and organized, $5. We crossed the street and began our visit around 10am and immediately got into a line to spin a wheel for a discount at the pecan store. We only got 5% off, but I used it to buy some cinnamon pecans and hot sauce. Obviously they sold all sorts of pecans shelled, in the shell, covered with chocolate and yogurt, pies, honey, jam, and other non-pecan items. Coffee samples were available too. They had a bunch of vendors from local businesses, artisans, and food trucks. We watched a pecan cracking demonstration which was cool, pecan samples, and they had a guessing contest for a huge container of pecans. SRP was giving out totes and LED lightbulbs, what a neat giveaway. After visiting all the booths, it was time for lunch so we weighed our choices and my friend went with Peruvian cuisine and I stuck with Mexican: a bean and cheese burrito and a pecan horchata. The burrito was huge and delicious, so filling. I love when the beans are puréed and not chunky. My friend's paella came with green salsa and she let me have some, ooh that was so tasty. The horchata was on the sweet side and I didn't really taste the pecans but I'm glad I tried it. The gelato lady offered us samples and was nice! Wish I would've had room after lunch to eat some. We missed out on the hay ride but that sounded like a fun experience. We drove through the pecan orchard instead, would've been nicer to walk through the trees. Live music was playing and there was a lot of tables but also a lot of people, so be prepared to wait to sit as well as order your food. I'm glad I came to their 10th annual festival and would recommend it as a unique experience in Southern Tucson.

Tough to review because I have no frame of reference. But any festival that benefits charity is…read moregood in my eyes. The hayride to the orchard was extra cool. For a canned food donation or $1 you can hop on. The ride was narrated by a UofA professor and was super informative. They had tractor pulls, hay rides, live music, several food and drink vendors, along with the pecan store. A plethora of everything pecan! The other really cute thing was the high school dance team busting a move on stage. They were fabulous!! I'll definitely do this next year if I'm in town. And next time I'll bring canned goods for donation!
