Waterwise Botanicals is pitching in with its Third Annual Succulent Celebration 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Friday June 5, and Saturday, June 6. “We do it every year and it’s a very popular event,” said Tom Jesch, Waterwise Botanicals founder and general manager. The event is free. It features speakers, workshops, vendors, artists, books and authors, food and fun and, above all, inspiration. It’s believed to be Southern California’s largest event celebrating the beauty, versatility and sustainability of succulents. The celebration also features an infusion of color, creation and excitement about drought-tolerant landscaping and a world of living art,” according to Jesch, himself a professional artist before going full-time into the succulent biz.

Waterwise Botanicals is at 32183 Old Highway 395. For more information, call (760) 728-2641, email events@waterwisebotanicals.com or visit www.succulentcelebration.com.
