Tucson Bird Alliance: Southeast Arizona Birding Festival – Mission Garden—Tucson’s Birthplace Field Trip

We’ll visit Mission Garden (at the base of “A” Mountain) which revives Tucson’s history through garden plots representing four millennia of multicultural and gastronomic history. Find some of the same birds that have been visiting Tucson gardens for 4,000 years! Drive time to the meeting location from festival venue is about 15 minutes.

Limited to 10 participants.

Difficulty: Easy. Some mild slopes, but mostly flat ground and good walking surfaces. Bathroom and water on-site.

Cost: Free with festival registration, plus $5 donation at Mission Garden
