The Theodore Payne Foundation will be closed Friday, January 30th in solidarity with our immigrant community and in protest of the violence being committed by DHS and ICE across the country.

We honor the generations of care, labor, and stewardship that immigrants have given to this land, to the great benefit of us all.

The closure applies to both the Sun Valley Nursery and Los Nogales Nursery. Both locations will reopen for regular hours on Saturday, January 31st.
