After your hike, enjoy relaxing Canyon Classic massages for two in our Canyon Spa Cabin or Tent. Complimentary Hot Breakfast Coupons for two at our Canyon Market and Deli are included, redeemable through the duration of your stay, and a nature guidebook is your personal keepsake to take home along with the fond memories of your Springtime Adventure!

Note:  If you've never been "glamping", you are in for a treat!  El Capitan Canyon is amazing!  Family-friendly and a beautiful setting with El Capitan public Beach Park across the road. It is a very special treat!  I had the fun opportunity to spend a night there for a friend's big birthday party. El Capitan Canyon also has fun Saturday summer evenings including live bands and a great BBQ dinner, which we locals often attend.

Santa Barbara International Orchid Show, March 13-15

Earl Warren Show Grounds

Birds, Bees, and Baby Orchids: SBIOS exhibitor Gallup & Stribling talks about making baby orchids

Can't find orchid seed to make your own baby orchids? There's a reason orchid seed isn't sold in packets at your local garden center! SBIOS director John Ernest, who heads the propagation laboratory at Gallup & Stribling Orchids, explains that tiny orchid seeds have no nutrients to help them germinate. In the wild, orchid seeds are dependent on a symbiotic relationship with fungus which gives them the energy necessary to germinate. At Gallup & Stribling, orchid seed germinates on a special nutrient medium in a sealed flask in a controlled environment. That blooming orchid you purchase from an orchid nursery or at the Santa Barbara International Orchid Show took years to grow from seed, growing first in a flask and then in a pot on a nursery bench! Look for Gallup & Stribling in the Santa Barbara International Orchid Show exhibit hall and visit their retail store in Carpinteria, just south of Santa Barbara.
