I Visited South Coast Botanic Garden And This is What Happened

By Stacey Freeman 1 Comment

A couple weeks ago, my parents were in town. They love to visit botanical gardens, so we decided to check out the South Coast Botanic Garden. There are several different Los Angeles Botanic gardens, but this one was the closest to where my parents were staying, so we decided to check it out.

South Coast Botanic Garden

The botanic garden is located in the Palos Verdes peninsula in lovely Southern California. Its located near the Rolling Hills Estates. The drive to the garden is pretty, and if you have some time after you visit, you should head down to Rancho Palos Verdes or San Pedro, where there are gorgeous views of the coast and the flower-lined cliffs.

When we arrived, we found the admission to the gardens was totally reasonable. As we walked through the entrance, we happened upon some women doing yoga. I can’t think of a more calm place to do yoga. It was so very peaceful among all of the gorgeous flowering trees.

I actually wish I had thought about packing a lunch to enjoy on one of the benches or the vast grounds. We also could have spent more time reading about all of the different plants and trees, but opted to focus on seeing as much as we could.

They are quite stunning and the trip was the perfect chance to walk around, enjoy the gorgeous LA weather, and spend some quality time with my parents too.

Happy Saturday friends! What are you up to this we Happy Saturday friends! What are you up to this weekend? 

I’m feeling extra grateful to live in LA today. We woke up bright and early, drove 10 minutes, and shot a campaign at the beach all before 8am. 

Sometimes I can’t even believe this is my life. We have built a thriving business that allows me to go to the beach and take photos with my kids. But for the non-influencers out there, it is not easy. It is 24/7 and it’s taken me 9 years of consistent effort to get here. Nevertheless, I am thankful. What are you thankful for today?

By the way, make sure to check out the link in my profile so you can take a peek at my new children’s book, A Thankful Book for Kids, which launches next Tuesday! You can preorder on Amazon today!

I still can hardly believe I’m a published children’s book author. This isn’t my first time being published; I’ve written many academic papers and even a book chapter with a colleague about museum activism. But a children’s book? I never imagined or dreamed I could.

Now it’s only 5 more days until my first children’s book hits stores! You can preorder now on Amazon. I appreciate your love and support. Link in stories!
