Flashback to the early 1960s and the origins of Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens with $1 admission for everyone on Sunday, October 15, from 9:00am to 6:00pm. Retro Sunday is Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens day of giving back to the community that has supported us for more than 62 years! This annual community appreciation day’s old-fashioned pricing is the Gardens’ way of sharing the love.

For those who have not visited in a while, come see what’s new and blooming this fall. Delight in the dahlias, begonias, fuchsias, and so much more. Introduce a friend to the Gardens or bring your family and spend the day wandering the 47 acres of botanical bliss. Find inspiration for your home garden, have a family picnic, walk the dog, or find a quiet spot to melt the day away... just a few ideas to get you started.

Tickets can be purchased at the door. Please plan to carpool if possible, parking is limited and this is a popular day to visit.
