🌱 Casa Sur Hacienda was honored to attend and support Olivewood Gardens & Learning Center at the Seedling Soirée 2026!
What an extraordinary evening on May 30th — a Forage & Feast experience under the theme "Nourishing Today. Thriving Tomorrow." The energy in the property was a beautiful testament to what happens when a community gathers around food, culture, and a shared vision for a healthier future.
Olivewood Gardens, rooted in National City right in our South Bay backyard, is doing transformational work — connecting families to garden-based education, nutrition, healthy cooking, environmental stewardship, leadership development, and food access advocacy. Their programs reach children, youth, and adults across generations, empowering communities through the soil and the stove.
At Casa Sur Hacienda, we believe that a home is more than four walls — it is a living space for culture, community, and connection. From our courtyard and fruit trees to our complimentary dance class for guests, we are rooted in the same conviction: that when people gather with intention, belonging and wellness flourish. That shared belief — that community is the foundation of wellbeing — is what made supporting Olivewood Gardens' mission feel not just meaningful, but deeply personal.
The Seedling Soirée brought together incredible local chefs, craft drink purveyors, live music, and a passionate community of supporters. Seeing organizations like this thrive reminds us why investing in our neighbors is one of the most powerful things we can do.
