June 9, 2012 - Quinta Fay Garden Tour

We traveled beyond the San Francisco Bay area for our late spring event this year, visiting the house and gardens of Quinta Fay near Gustine. Gustine is a farming community in the western Central Valley north of Los Baños. Carved out of the walnut orchards and cornfields that surround it, Quinta Fay—named for garden creator Fay Truitt McBride—reflects the ranching and Spanish-American heritage of the area in its architecture and landscape.
