All are invited to the Fall Foliage Festival, taking place at the Rhododendron Species Botanical Garden on Saturday, Oct. 28, and Sunday, Oct. 29, 2023, from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.
Enjoy guided tours, pop-up plant vendors, food trucks, a costume contest, and kids activities.
Discover an immersive wonderland of sights, sounds and sensations – from cool breezes to rustling leaves, and the quiet swaying of golden-brown maple trees.
The garden’s annual autumn celebration is a fun retreat for the whole family and sure to please garden aficionados and nature lovers of all ages.
Come see one of the finest displays of fall foliage color on the west coast.
Our large collection of Japanese maples, deciduous azaleas and other deciduous species never fails to produce a huge range of bright colors right before we head into the dark and grey of winter.
Your last chance for outdoor color until next spring! Don your favorite October-themed outfit to compete for garden prizes in a light-hearted costume contest, enjoy sweet and frothy drinks, warm and spicy food, and partake in all manner of growing things.
Garden ghouls and goblins of all ages will be swept away as they explore picturesque trails, share the good fall vibes, and celebrate this most enchanted time of year.
