Arboretum gift shop to hold holiday open house Dec. 5-6

Cookies and cheer will be on hand when Norrie's Gift Shop at the Arboretum has its holiday open house December 5 and 6, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. both days.

The shop is filled with items for the holidays and stunning home decorations, including dried flower and succulent wreaths and long-lasting bouquets. Find that special toy, unusual plant, cards, jewelry, and garden statuary, as well as unique gifts for the home, including carved soapstone boxes from Vietnam. Norrie's also carries a selection of books, including guides to California plants and landscaping for the Monterey Bay Area.

All proceeds support the Arboretum.

During the month of December, Norrie's is offering a 10 percent discount to staff, faculty, and students on all purchases. To receive the discount, show your campus ID and indicate you would like the discount before the cashier rings up your purchase.

Norrie's is open daily from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m., except Thanksgiving and Christmas.
