Nature's new scene
Coastal foothills never before open to the public soon will be, along with a brand new nature center building.
By PAT BRENNAN
The Orange County Register
Wild country closed to the public for decades is about to be opened up, offering nature enthusiasts a new window into Orange County's coastal scrub and oak-covered foothills.
And in this case, it really will be a window – actually a few of them. They'll be a central feature of the new Nix Nature Center near the heart of Laguna Canyon.
Organizers call these windows “portals,” part of an exhibit that takes visitors on a breezy trip through science, art and history.
The public will get its first glimpse Saturday in a dedication ceremony, although the official opening date is still uncertain. One of the first things visitors are likely to notice about the place: an intense focus on the natural landscape.
“It's about the land and not about the people,” said Mary Fegraus, executive director of the Laguna Canyon Foundation and a driving force behind the new center. “People get to talk all the time. This is a chance to let the land talk.”
The Nix Center, named after a Laguna Woods couple who provided $500,000 to build it, will be the jumping-off point for access to new trails in the northern portion of Laguna Coast Wilderness Park, never before open to the public. Hikers and bikers will be able to explore more of the foothill country between the San Joaquin (73) Toll Road and the San Diego (I-405) Freeway.
They'll also be able to explore the land around Orange County's only natural lakes. The newly realigned Laguna Canyon Road shifts traffic out of the old, two-lane roadway in the canyon bottom, moving it west. There are now two lanes in each direction with a buffer between, and underpasses that will allow public access to the lakes for the first time.
This week, construction workers were still sawing and hammering, artists were touching up murals, and landscapers were preparing to plant native bunch grasses. (Ed note: These grasses were grown, bumped up and planted by the Nursery volunteers.)
Not everything will be completed in time for Saturday's event, Fegraus said. But visitors should get a taste of the carefully prepared exhibit and the land around the new center. They'll be encouraged to hike and explore, she said.
The portal theme is one of the most striking aspects of the center; organizers say the unusual approach is a bit of a risk, but one they hope will grab visitors' attention.
The idea is to look through conceptual “portals” that represent a variety of viewpoints about the land that surrounds the center. The real, physical portals, an array of broad windows and an outdoor metal frame, are meant to focus visitors' attention on specific landscape features.
The canyon country's history – natural and human – has filled volumes, and Jennifer Rigby, director of the Acorn Group, who wrote the text for the exhibit as well as helping design it, said she knew from the start that she would be unable to cover it all in the center's 2,000-foot-square space.
Then she thought of the portals. By looking at the surrounding landscape from a scientist's point of view, then an artist's, then a historian's, visitors could get a kind of high-altitude snapshot of the many ways of seeing Orange County's rugged, natural country.
The three streams of viewpoint braid their way through the exhibit space. Visitors pass artificial rocks embedded with casts of fossils, a sweeping landscape mural, and a flat-topped boulder with a pestle, where visitors can try their hands at grinding corn.
Short films projected on screens and a room of plein-air paintings will complete the presentation. A deck outside is meant for artists who wish to paint the landscape.
Scientists and members of local American Indian tribes served as advisors for the exhibit. So it provides a taste of geological history as well as tribal lore – how animals on the land, for example, correspond to symbols and characters from ancient stories.
The exhibit is light on a few things, such as details of archaeological findings in the area, or an in-depth treatment of more recent history – some controversial development decisions, for example.
Rigby said she steered away from several matters of controversy, but not for fear of giving offense. Instead, she said she wanted to stay true to the center's purpose: whetting visitors' appetite for a trip outside, not bogging them down with lengthy lectures.
“It's causing visitors to start asking some of their own questions,” Rigby said during a visit to the center last week.
The exhibit includes a detailed landscape mural by Katy Betz, a graduate of the Laguna College of Art and Design; just outside, a half-mile loop trail will allow even casual visitors to experience the real thing.
The seed money from James and Rosemary Nix, who visited the canyon frequently over 25 years, helped gain more funding from state park bonds and the Laguna Canyon Foundation to cover
Originally, the center was supposed to be built on top of a nearby hill. But when Nix, a park ranger and members of the Laguna Canyon Foundation came to check out the site in 2003, they were drawn instead to a hollow surrounded by spectacular views.
“We said, ‘This is the location,' ” said James Nix, 88, who came with his wife last week to see workers putting on the final touches. “The ranger called us all down and said, ‘This is the spot.' ”

PROFILE
Sowing seeds of service
Robert Lawson received White House recognition for his work with Laguna Canyon Foundation.
By CHRISTA WOODALL CONTRIBUTING WRITER
Robert Lawson makes his green thumb count. Lawson has dedicated more than 4,000 hours – or two years – to volunteer service for the Laguna Canyon Foundation, Laguna Greenbelt, Inc. and Laguna Coast Wilderness Park. With his wife, Nanci, Lawson established a nursery in Willow Canyon to grow native seedlings for planting in Laguna Coast Wilderness Park. He was recognized for his service with the President’s Volunteer Service Award in a surprise ceremony March 28.
Q: What was it like to receive the Volunteer Service Award?
A: I was flattered that Ranger Barbara (Norton) submitted my name. Barbara, and the whole park staff, have been supportive and fun to work with. Laguna Greenbelt has also been a key supporter and allowed the nursery to be an integral part of its volunteer program.
Q: How do you balance volunteering with career and family?
A: The family side is easier as my wife, Nanci, is the first nursery volunteer and still volunteers. I work at Soka University, and we have had biology and ecology classes come work and learn at the nursery.
Q: How did you start the nursery at Willow Canyon?
A: I had mentioned the idea of a nursery with Ranger Barbara and she said, “You should start a nursery here.” I had met various Laguna Greenbelt members, notably Mary Fegrus and Elizabeth Brown, through volunteer work with The Nature Conservancy, and knew Laguna Greenbelt was an effective and friendly group to work with. Mary introduced me to Scott Thomas from Laguna Greenbelt, and we worked with the Rangers for a viable location and plan. This all took about a year, back in 2002. The following year, Laguna Greenbelt accepted the nursery as part of its volunteer program.
Q: What sparked your lifelong love of plants?
A: I’ve enjoyed hiking all of my life, and that exposes you to the environment, especially plants.
Q: What is your favorite flower or plant?
A: Of my many favorites, I certainly enjoy Monkey Flower and Datura.
Robert Lawson Age: 54 Reside: Aliso Viejo Family: Wife, Nanci, and four adult children Education: Bachelors in business, Cal State Fullerton Profession: Database administrator for Soka University

About Volunteering
Hello Prospective Volunteer,
Thank you for your interest in the Laguna Coast Wilderness Park Nursery. We provide seeds and plants for restoration projects within the park. We have a core volunteer group, yet we are continually looking for more volunteers. Come join us on one of our work days to discover how enjoyable it is to volunteer in the Nursery.
Nursery activities include seed collection, nursery management, plant propagation and restoration planting. If you have no experience, we're more than willing to work with you, if you can volunteer regularly. Nursery work days almost always include working with people who have years of helpful experience. You should be in reasonably good health, as much of the work is physical.
You should consider a commitment of at least 1 Nursery work day per month during the plant year: Oct-Feb. Some volunteers prefer to focus on one Nursery activity, like seed collecting- hiking with a bag; others do all of them. As you contribute to restoring the parks habitat, you’ll learn more about California native plants.
We are a Laguna Canyon Foundation sponsored project. Laguna Canyon Foundation is the primary volunteer organization at LCWP that coordinates and promotes the Nursery, Restoration work, Docent hikes and Wilderness Access Volunteers greeters. See their website at http://www.lagunacanyon.org/. Volunteers are encouraged to support Laguna Canyon Foundation through membership. As an active Nursery volunteer you receive a park t-shirt, plant guide, Franko map, parking pass and access to park when closed to public, when approved.
I look forward to seeing you at the Nursery. You become an active member after coming to more than 3 work days, completing the LCF orientation and getting the County required ID.
Sincerely, Robert
Robert Lawson
Volunteer Nursery Manager

Water Valve
The Nursery water lines can be turned off at larger valve near the porta-potty’s. If you have need to turn the water off, say for a leak, please let me and park ranger know also. There is one caution, when turning the large valve on/off you must do it slowly, due to the high pressure. This valve is easy to turn, and get’s turned off inadvertently at times.
