Retro Days - May 6, 7 & 8
Sixty years ago, the Gardens began with a simple but ambitious idea... a flower-filled landscape for the people, stretching all the way to the Pacific Ocean. Now, you are invited to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the grand opening of the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens with a three-day celebration. “Retro Days” honors the Gardens' roots with a nostalgic look back, special pricing, and family-friendly activities set against the spectacular coastal landscape. During the celebration, admission will be just $1, with $1 ice cream scoops at Rhody's Café available throughout the day. You can also enter daily drawings upon arrival for a chance to win Gardens swag, memberships, and admission tickets. Three winners will be chosen each day! A Living Legacy Over six decades, the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens has become a beloved destination and a community hub known for its coastal setting, diverse plant collections, and commitment to fostering a deeper connection with nature. That founding spirit still carries through today with our Giving Garden Program, ongoing conservation efforts, Nature Walks, and Education Program. Be a part of the Gardens’ story. Join us for Retro Days, May 6 through 8, to explore the 47-acre landscape and reflect on a place that began as a retirement dream and continues to grow with each generation. Come celebrate 60 years of growth, community, and coastal beauty. Some places grow gardens. This one grew a legacy—and it is still blooming.
