Stopped at Shields today. We had breakfast, followed by a walk around the gardens. So many trees had fruit on them, just going to waste. Signs all over saying "don't pick the fruit." Instead of letting the fruit rot on the trees, why not pick the fruit to sell or even donate to a food pantry? I was saddened seeing all the fruit going to waste.
Definitely a must stop when passing through La Quinta/Indio. The store has fun souvenirs, the cafe is beautiful and the food is delicious, and the date shakes are sooooo good! Not to mention the staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming and provides excellent service no matter what you are doing or getting here.
We visit yearly. It appears as if some major renovations have recently been completed. Last year, 2024, the place was looking shabby and run down. Today, 3/12/2025 it looked fresh and new! Nice to see the improvements. We'll definitely keep returning in the future. The Walk is wonderful.
