This a one of those places you don't appreciate until you go there. It is an oasis tucked away in the middle of Orange County. More

I was sitting here trying to think about what to say about the Fullerton Arboretum, as we've been there many times. Then I realized that if you just string the titles of each review, it would definitely be a great summary of what it has to offer. More

The arboretum at Cal State Fullerton is behind the college off of Yorba Linda. Parking is free and when you walk in there is a box for donations (we usually put in a few bucks). It's surprisingly large and has areas focusing on Mediterranean, Desert, Woodland, and an area for kids. They even sell plants on the weekends! More

Very nice hidden gem in the middle of Fullerton. Peaceful, relaxing and some very interesting plants. A great place to spend a few hours with small kids. Bring some bread and feed the ducks. More

lots of unusual plants and exhibits. No specific admission charge, but donation is requested. Parking can be limited if there is a game or something special going on at Fullerton College, which shares the parking lot. Lots of weekend special events, plant sales and tours of the Heritage House. They have special seasonal kids programs during the day and evening... More
