About the Theodore Payne Foundation

We are a nonprofit retail California native plant nursery north of Los Angeles offering plants, seeds, books and educational programs.  Our 22 acres (map) encompass three sales yards, where we usually have displayed over 500 native species for sale, extensive propagation and growing areas, an office and bookstore, as well as demonstration garden areas, a picnic area, wildflower nature trail, and natural canyon areas. Our customers come to us year round, to buy and learn about natives.
