Formerly called the Lincoln Community garden. Very near the large Mc Bean park. Runs off volunteer workers and donates fresh produce to good causes. Founded in 2012 - so its still very new and is dealing with funding and finding volunteers. Rotary club is playing a big role. Newer fencing and irrigation all done from donations. St James church and the local food bank get donations from this park. The garden is sort of small and needs some more upkeep. Visited in the winter so there wasn't all that much going on. Cute little passion project. The city of Lincoln has this small town feel and this adds to it. Normally you see this sort of thing in cities like Berkley. read more

This garden is amazing. It is a gift and I am grateful it exists. I have been here for many years gardening year round in this fabulous 9B zone. There is now information near by the Tofft Memorial Garden sign if you would like to join for 2026. Plots are usually available. It is rewarding, FUN and healthy to eat and care for organic produce of your choice. Hope to see you there! read more

- Not disability friendly, if you require any sort of aid walking, skip it. Cane users are going…read moreto find it grueling, literally cannot use it with a walker or wheelchair. It's terraced, and the "ramps" are very steep, and laid with rocky sand, hard to walk in, and even harder to navigate with an aid. But in over half of the terraces, stairs are your only option. If you have asthma or a heart condition it's probably not a great option either. - The friendliest "workers" there were at the check in desk. everyone else looked sour, judgmental and 100% like they were being forced to interact with unwashed masses. - 95% guests were over the age of 65 - and acted like you would expect. - As a person with a degree in ornamental horticulture, ag business, and art - you would think this place was right up my alley. But as a botanical garden it was a flop for me. Nothing was labeled, cheap filler plants everywhere (pansies and yarrow). You'd think with it being a "tulip" garden that they'd be proud to point out rare and beautiful types, and emphasize the history. But the garden is simply a place to oooh over the pretty and feel superior that they've got the money to spend to make everything aesthetic. My ag business degree pointed out that 15$-20$ tickets, crowded with elderly people with money, expensive building materials, and the hoity toity airs, that's it's a money draw for rich people to feel like they are in "nature" and to feel superior. So as a business it's doing as intended. I wouldn't visit if you are expecting a botanical garden or for it to be "medatative". - As a place for picture opportunities, it's a flop unless you want sour boomers making faces at you for trying to stay in one place long enough to catch a moment with no one in the background. It's so crowded you can't avoid them. I say this as a 50+ year old. - DEFINITELY you WILL be judged if you are wearing anything that could be construed as "immodest" ie: tank tops, cleavage, shorts, or skirts above knees. Oh, and nice, but expensive, jeans are too dressed down as well. The silent disapproval of medatative rich boomers glaring at your disgusting shoulders and knees is an unpleasant background experience we didn't expect. Having dressed normally for a warm day in perfectly decent clothes for any other "botanical garden". -NOT child or baby friendly, teens will hate it and the vibe. Overall, do not recommend, I regret wasting money on tickets, and I only don't regret the drive because we love hwy 49s beauty. As someone with a huge interest in plants and plant businesses, I delight in visiting these kinds of places, but this particular "hermitage" was a 3/10 and it's only rating that high because they did have some really beautiful tulips and water features.

Great flowers. Interesting Hindu grounds with thousands and thousands of beautifully, arranged,…read moretulips, and beautiful views of a Yuba River Valley. Well worth the $15 ticket. Everybody was super nice, parking was easy, bathrooms were great. We even found a cool nearby yurt on Airbnb we liked (not associated with the Hermitage).

The garden was named after Brooks Truitt whom was a longtime mid-town activist fighting for the preservation of historic sites in and around the City of Sacramento. The new garden comprises of 25 10 by 10 plots plus 3 raised plots with wheelchair access. On site you will also find a tool shed, compost bins, and seating area for breaks, lunch and relaxation. The garden is managed by the City of Sacramento Parks & Recreation. Each plot is rented out for a yearly basis for a small fee. This garden will eventually be connected to Truitt Bark Park which will also have a 3000 sq ft plaza for social gatherings. What a wonderful addition to the neighborhood !

I have been germinating seeds for a long time and my interest in plants extends to the very life sustaining forests of California Sierras.

Many seniors in our complex get tomatoes, beans, peppers and lettuce from our efforts. We are so happy to have this garden in Vallejo and hope it continues to grow and thrive.

Lots and lots of tomato plants and sunflower plants. Lots of bees. As soon as you get there, there's a small red barn. We went straight to the barn and picked up some garden vegetables, Chinese long purple beans for 3 dollars and two eggplants and one green apple. A volunteer weighs the produce and you pay with a credit card. They had some zinnias and sunflowers for sale but an older woman got there upon opening and bought two buckets of it for 62 dollars and there were no more flowers to buy. I was there for an hour admiring the flowers and different varieties of gourds and vegetables growing. You can rent a private plot for 200 dollars and lots of elderly people were tending to their plants happily and chatted with us as we walked around. A lovely community garden beloved by the old and young. Definitely recommend a trip here and especially on Saturdays when you can get some super fresh garden produce. Cute place.

Short and simple; with a good price and customer service. There's phone/tablet accessories on the walls that you can buy, and a seating area. They also sell second hand phones. So, you can also upgrade your phone. And complimentary coffee and bottled water. * Btw, if you have any questions for Salmaan - just call. His preference is speaking on the phone. It saves him time.

This takes me to the city of Folsom where I stumbled across "Hinkle Creek Nature Area", a place I had not even heard about until making an actual visit. Located in a residential part of Folsom alongside Baldwin Dam Rd., this park/nature preserve is closest to Oak Ave and Folsom-Auburn Rd while being just west of the American River. I came here with my lady during the afternoon of Sunday 2/1/2026 at around 1:00pm. Much to my surprise, parking was free and easily accessible. What I particularly liked about this nature area was that you may enter through either a paved or unpaved trail as the entire walk stretches in just under a mile. And much to my surprise, the 36-acres that accommodates this park actually made me feel as if I was more in the open air wilderness. Since we came during a comfortable day, we witnessed a ton of fresh green grass and the absence of leaves on many of the trees. During my walk, The overall nature area is the perfect spot for relaxed, leisurely walks that even the most non-skilled person can do while it is stroller and pet friendly. I also wanted to add that the trail can also be used for mountain biking and even horseback riding even though we did not witness that on our walk. I also encourage everyone to pay a visit to the actual Hinkle Creek Nature Center that offers useful information and educational programs to children. All in all, this is an excellent and well-maintained nature center that caters to all walks of life. My rating, a unanimous five stars.

Dog are allowed, but keep in mind that if your dog is a barker or not totally canine-friendly, there are few places to let others pass when you are on the unpaved portion of the trail. Go in the spring time when the grass is green and lush. This is a gem of a find.
