A Message from Pamela Seager
Executive Director of
Rancho Los Alamitos
"Eric Haskell is a former Trustee of Rancho Los Alamitos Foundation and is an energetic and enormously engaging speaker. He has given presentations throughout the United States and Europe and a chance to hear Eric is a chance to spend some delightful and informative time thinking about gardens, style and the nature of landscape and life. Truly not to be missed! And, there is tea in the garden afterward."
