Gala in the Garden

San Diego Botanic Garden in Encinitas hosted its annual fundraiser, “Gala in the Garden: Grow With Passion,” Sept. 10. This year’s event honored Nan Sterman, host of “A Growing Passion” on KPBS. Guests had the opportunity to explore the Garden’s trails, enjoy fine wine, craft beer and the best dishes from local restaurants. Live entertainment and exquisite floral designs were also part of the outdoor festivities, with proceeds going to benefit Encinitas’ Garden jewel. For more information, visit www.sdbgarden.org.
