Brand Park Memory Garden!

Bill
Brand Park (Memory Garden)
Landmark #150 Los Angeles County Visited: July 4, 2011 Plaque?  NO. 🙁
What is it? A beautifully landscaped park that honors Father Lasuén and the California missions!
What makes it historical? THE GUIDE SAYS: Brand Park, also called Memory Garden, was given to the city for a park November 4, 1920. It is a part of the original land grant of Mission San Fernando Rey de España, and the colorful and picturesque atmosphere of the early California missions is preserved in Memory Garden.

OTHER TIDBITS: That pretty well sums it up!
How can I Help the Helpers? HERE’S HOW:

  • Volunteer with the Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks!
  • Be a responsible visitor! Please respect the signs and pathways, and treat all structures and artifacts with respect. They’ve endured a lot to survive into the present. They’ll need our help to make it into the future!
