Such a lovely, cute, sculpted nature sanctuary! 100+ yr old building remodeled with such care & nod to Sacramento environment sustainability. Walk around their shop or garden for free. Plants, art, skincare produts & clothing for sale. Also a perfect little spot to rent for events or weddings. Handicapped accessible.

The Prickly Pear is a hidden gem of a place. I love how the shop/grounds just keep going and going. It could safely be called a tiny art gallery/museum as well. We really liked Inez too. She was super nice and friendly.

This plant store is giving me speakeasy vibes. Honestly it is like a theme park of succulents, it is a destination for sure and such a fun surprise as we found it by accident and it felt like walking into a beautifully curated dream. My sibling got the prickly pear kombucha. This would be a great place to bring a date, so much to look at in such a compact and unassuming location.

I absolutely love this place! We got married here back in September, and it was so beautiful. The owner and workers were incredibly communicative and kind. The setting was perfect for our small ceremony and reception. Would recommend not only to shop at, but if you're looking for a place to host an event!

An absolute dream location for your next event!! My daughter’s bridal shower was held here this weekend and it was PERFECT. The owner was incredibly easy and available to work with..even allowing us to add an additional hour one week before the shower and a staff member was on-site for questions. The barn that is the larger indoor space for hosting easily accommodated our 30 and could have hosted even more. The weather was on our side but the barn and greenhouse has air conditioning. We used the upstairs kitchen to keep food ready until serving. There are five 6 foot tables that seat 8 already inside of the barn and additional tables and chairs for use that we used for activities in the GORGEOUS courtyard. I loved everything that we used for table decor, photo backdrops etc. but the venue itself was soooo dreamy that you really only need to minimally decorate. I will recommend and use this place again and again
