Forestiere Underground Gardens

The Forestiere Underground Gardens in Fresno, California, are a series of subterranean structures built by Baldassare Forestiere, an immigrant from Sicily, over a period of 40 years from 1906 to his death in 1946. The gardens are operated by members of the Forestiere family through the Forestiere Hi

storical Center, and can be considered an unconventional example of vernacular architecture.
