Did You Know . . . Moraga is home to five graceful cement urns with a story most people drive right past?Back in 1914, the Moraga Company had big dreams: a grand entryway for a new real estate venture, complete with a 21-block subdivision, a rose garden, and a hotel. Then reality hit. By 1929, only one lot and five cottages had sold, right as the Stock Market crashed. Goodbye, subdivision dreams! šBut the urns stuck around! š Today, four sit in the median on Country Club Drive, while the fifth graces the Moraga Library.Since 2020, the Moraga Garden Club has taken on the challenge of keeping each of them planted and beautiful. šøšæNext time you pass by, give them a little wave! šMCN appreciates the assistance of the Moraga Historical Society and its pesident, Susan Sperry, as well as the Moraga Garden Club.

Did You Know. . . that the oldest fruit trees in California might be right here in Moraga? ![]()
![]()
Take a look at the six-trunk Winter Pear tree on the lawn of the Villa Moraga housing complex! Standing tall at the corner of St. Mary's and Moraga Roads, this stately beauty has been declared a "Heritage Tree" by the Moraga Historical Society. Old records suggest it was planted at the turn of the LAST century, before The Moraga Company ever planted their first Bartlett pears! š®![]()
![]()
Here's the amazing part: developers of Villa Moraga cut the old tree downā¦ but it refused to quit. Suckers sprouted from the root, and today it sits happily with SIX tall trunks, putting on a showy globe of flowers every spring. ![]()

A little more Moraga history: The Moraga Company planted Bartlett pear trees all over town around 1913. Our pears were shipped to the East Coast and the Oakland canneries, where they were proclaimed, "as fine as any found within the state." Every can wore a blue label reading "MORAGA PEARS."![]()
