About Us

Imagine a place that is surrounded by unspoiled California majestic hills. A canopy of trees shades the ground. Pathways that wind through a Botanic garden, with specimen plants in a variety of settings. A meandering stream quenches the arid land, the fragrance of herbs and sweet flowers rises up to greet you. Witness butterflies & hummingbirds drink sweet nectar, nature is abound here in our gardens.

 Sit on a shady bench and listen to the songbirds call to each other. The peaceful beauty of nature is all around. A roaming path wanders through groups of potted plants. Yes, the same plants available for you to recreate your own paradise. We will help you take your garden from good to magical.

Liz and Joe Grumbine began this project in 1996. A barren piece of land with nothing but potential. They chose this place to begin their lives together with a garden wedding in 97 and have been building, growing and tending since.  The gardens became the best kept secret in the Elsinore valley and by popular demand began hosting weddings and events. Many happy brides shared their first moments of bliss in our gardens.

The next few years were spent building the nursery and cultivating the plants, and trees in the gardens. Joe began propagating herbs and perennials that are able to thrive in harsh environments. While Joe tended the garden, Liz perfected her formulas for natural skin care products.

Pamper yourself with nature.

Always available,  Liz's 100% Organic Beauty Products make perfect gifts for yourself and others.  Liz's talents also extend to homemade lavender, pomegranate syrups and seasonal jellies.

At Willow Creek Springs we love educating gardeners. We host a variety of classes through out the year and offer our gardens as a learning tool. Please stay tuned for more information.

Please excuse our dust, this website like the gardens is always a work in progress. Feel free to visit often to see how it turns out!  We welcome your comments and feedback, email us!
