Upcoming Events

Fall Foliage Festival

We will be selling our species rhododendrons at the Rhododendron Species Botanical Garden on Octobet 26 and 27 during their Fall Foliage Festival weekend. Garden admission is free during the weekend. Hours are 10 - 4. You are welcome to pre-order specific plants, and we will bring them along for you.

We are still open by appointment and prefer to operate that way so we can give you individual attention. Please text or call 206-383-2713 for a date and time that works for us both. Our garden is a destination right now!

Educational Events

Whether presented by Bob or other gardening experts, we love sharing our knowledge about species rhododendrons. Interested in having Bob present to your group or special event? Send us an email! View our past events below.

Private Events

Enjoy a family gathering, an afternoon home-school outing, or a quiet picnic in the middle of nature at Chimacum Woods

We can provide a table or two for picnics - even provide coffee and other drinks if you desire.
