Edgewood Botanic Garden

Edgewood Botanic Garden is a small botanical garden on Mount Tamalpais in Mill Valley with Coast redwoods and various California plant species. The garden covers less than one acre and focuses on vegetation typical of the region's coastal mountains.

The garden was founded to protect and display native plant species from California's coastal mountains. Over time, it became a place where visitors could learn about the original plant life of the area.

The space displays plants that grow naturally in this part of California and gives visitors a feel for the region's plant life. Walking through it, you can see what the original vegetation of the Bay Area looked like.

The site is located near the intersection of Edgewood and Cypress Avenues and is relatively easy to reach. Though the garden is currently not actively maintained, visitors can walk through and view the plants.

The garden holds a rare collection of trees from California's coastal mountains packed into a very small space. This concentration allows visitors to explore the region's tree diversity without long hikes.
