There’s just something special about time spent at the garden 🌿

Laughter, sunshine, a little dirt on your hands, and the simple joy of watching things grow. Whether you’re planting seeds, feeding the animals, or just soaking in the peace, every moment here feels a little lighter and a lot more meaningful.

Come slow down, get your hands in the soil, and have some fun with us at The Root 66 Garden 💚

❤️Guess who made the garden their home?

A male Hooded Oriole was spoted this week at the Garden. We could identify him right away by his bright, lemon-yellow "hood" and belly, his black wings accented with white wingbars, and that distinct, sharply pointed black mask and throat bib.

They are incredibly common in backyard settings throughout Rancho Cucamonga and the Inland Empire during the spring and summer months, especially wherever people keep ornamental palm trees or hummingbird feeders.

At The Root 66 Garden, we believe learning starts with connection, to the earth, to food, and to each other 🌱

We’re proud to offer programs for all ages that bring hands-on experiences and meaningful learning to life:

🌿 Root 66 Rangers (Ages 6–12)
Our kids agricultural education program where young learners dig into gardening, discover where food comes from, and build confidence through outdoor, hands-on experiences.

🌻 Field Trips, Returning to Our Roots (All Ages)
A guided, immersive visit to the garden designed for schools, families, and groups. Participants explore sustainable growing, meet our animals, and reconnect with the simple, powerful roots of nature and food.

🌱 Kids Korner Volunteer Program (All Ages, Parent Participation)
A family-centered volunteer experience where kids and parents work side by side in the garden, learning responsibility, teamwork, and the joy of giving back to their community.

🥕 FoodShare Educational Co-op (All Ages, Family Program)
A unique participation-based program where families contribute time in the garden in exchange for fresh, organically grown food, while learning sustainable practices, food systems, and healthy living together.

Every program is designed to inspire curiosity, build life skills, and create lasting connections, not just to the garden, but to each other.

🌱 Kids Ranger Program at The Root 66 Garden 🌱

Our Kids Ranger program is where curiosity meets the garden 🌻

Designed for kids who love to explore, learn, and get their hands in the soil, this program gives young gardeners the chance to:
🌿 Grow their own food
🐞 Learn about bugs, composting, and soil health
🌼 Care for plants and understand nature’s cycles
🐔 Connect with animals and the rhythms of the garden
🤝 Build confidence, teamwork, and responsibility

This is more than just a program, it’s a space where kids become stewards of the earth, make new friends, and experience the magic of growing something from seed to harvest.

Whether your child is brand new to gardening or already loves the outdoors, Kids Rangers is a fun, meaningful way to spend time learning and growing in a real community garden.
