Heirloom Rose Garden
A heritage rose garden, which was originally planted in 1992, has been redesigned and renovated. There are around 19 varieties of heirloom roses growing in the gardens. Most of them bloom in early spring, with the best show beginning mid to late May.
Public Education
Master Gardener volunteers make educational presentations to student groups and other visitors to the site.
Kitchen Garden
The demonstration kitchen garden showcases the sustainable gardening practices that the pioneers used and serves as a teaching tool for the public. There are also apple trees, grapes, hops, and flowers, and we are working on a native American garden with plants known to be used by tribes in our area.
