Not everyone is lucky enough to be able to jog through a grove of lemon trees every morning, but as a resident of Tustin, you are. Citrus Ranch Park is named for its lemon tree orchard, which emanates a sweet, mood-boosting scent as you stroll or run right through. Some people fill their homes with citrusy aromas in order to foster a happy atmosphere, but Citrus Ranch Park has the natural air freshener built right into the landscape.
If you have kids, however, the playground might entice them more than the lemon grove. It's spread out atop a cushy, colorful play surface that's soft enough for your kids to go barefoot (as many do). Keep a close eye while they swing toward the sky, zip down a bright orange slide, or simply scamper up and down the ramps and stairs woven throughout the jungle gym.
