Review & FAQ:

The 47 acre botanical gardens are situated between Highway 1 and the Pacific coast, in former homestead territory. In 1893, David and Sarah Parish built their farmhouse on their allotment with the intention of raising potatoes and peas.

The house has been refurbished and is now the Conservation and Education Center. Among the collections in the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens are roses, magnolias, mushrooms, heathers and succulents. Docent-led walks take place all year round. Drought tolerant and deer resistant plants are sold at the nursery and during the spring and autumn plant sales.

The Garden Shop sells gifts, books and garden accessories. The restaurant is open in summer only.
