The Saguaro Discovery Trail Signs
These signs, which appear on the Saguaro Discovery Trail, will teach you about saguaros and their vital role in the lives of their long-time neighbors, the Tohono O’odham, or Desert People. Award-winning artist Michael Chiago painted the watercolors you will see. His work, which has been displayed throughout the United States and abroad, portrays the Desert People’s traditional way of life and reflects his pride in his Tohono O’odham heritage.

The Saguaro Discovery Trail
"Strange" saguaro has no odd parts
Tohono O'odham-the Desert People
Saguaros are people, too
Growing up saguaro isn't easy
Saguaros are good neighbors
Saguaro harvest begins the New Year
Saguaro fruit was a summer feast
Saguaros helped sing down the rain
Rain means survival for desert dwellers
Bountiful rains brought bountiful crops
