The public is invited to attend a 4 p.m. ribbon cutting and dedication of the Laguna Beach Sister Cities Garden on Wednesday, Feb. 18 at Cliff Drive, just north of Jasmine Street.
The garden represents native foliage from Laguna’s adopted siblings, the cities of San Jose del Cabo, Mexico; Menton, France; and St. Ives, England.
Mayor Bob Whalen will preside over the event that will be attended by two consular representatives from San Jose del Cabo and Menton, along with members from the Garden Club and the Sister Cities Association, said Sister Cities member Betsy Jenkins.
“It’s been a great collaboration between those two groups, Ruben Flores and the Laguna Nursery, as well as the Beautification Council,” Jenkins said.
