- Native and pollinator plants, planted with the intention of restoring the Monarch butterfly habitat to the region.
- A Chumash Ap (a traditional Chumash dwelling), built as an Eagle Scout project guided by local Chumash tribal members.
- A mural along one garden wall depicts a large tree and oversized butterflies, signifying the habitat that has been planted. Painted by local artist Uriel Leon, the mural was embellished under his guidance by children from the Harrington Elementary School in Oxnard.
