Overview
The Forestiere Underground Gardens is a network of underground rooms, passages and courtyards where fruit trees grow toward openings in the ceiling.
History
Baldassare Forestiere, an immigrant from Sicily, dug the gardens by hand over about forty years in the early 1900s, partly to escape the valley's summer heat. The site is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Today
The gardens are open for guided tours.
