Winter Conditions & Expectations - Feb 8
UPDATE: Considerable ice has coated everything. We will post updates here and on our social media when ski trails are ready again.
Greetings! The International Peace Garden has seen quite a bit of snowmelt this week! What better place to take in the unique February weather than by staying in our new cozy cabins! There are endless beautiful walks, views and hikes – ice allowing. All three available cabins can be rented for a small retreat group, if available. Dorms and other buildings for meetings and conferences are also available through the winter.
Our 2024 theme is Reading! The International Peace Garden continues to be focused on engaging youth in our programming. Classic Characters from toddler books to pre-teen will be featured in the floral designs and one of our accompanying features will include Story Boxes, strategically placed throughout the garden to encourage families to take some time to read one of the beautiful books contained within. We are looking for donations of the books listed on our Amazon book list. If you would like to donate a book or two, please click on the link below, select and purchase a title(s) from the list, and the book(s) will be mailed directly to the International Peace Garden. We appreciate your consideration and support of the IPG 2024 Reading theme.

If you have any questions, please contact Debra McCallum, Education and Volunteer Coordinator, at coordinator@peacegarden.com.
The Conservatory is home to one of the world’s most diverse indoor collections of cacti and succulents and makes for a great, warm escape from the cold during the long months ahead! Stayed tuned for opening dates.
Although the Garden is open all year, certain services are not available again until spring/summer. The Conservatory lobby and restrooms are closed due to maintenance, but the terrace building at No. 5 on the brochure map has restrooms that will be available throughout the winter, including during your dawn or dusk adventures! The Gift Shop and Cafe are closed for the season, but stay tuned as occasional winter hours are announced.
Ski trails will be groomed again when a more substantial snow pack is down. The Garden is looking for volunteers to help us maintain the ski trails. For more information contact Education and Volunteer Coordinator Deb McCallum at coordinator@peacegarden.com to learn more about winter volunteer opportunities and benefits.
The Garden is open year-round! Although fewer attractions are available in winter, as a non-profit organization the Garden appreciates support as all visits benefit our mission. You can purchase a day pass or annual membership. Passes, memberships and gift certificates make for great holiday presents and can be made in the recipient’s name. Please contact Jennifer Beard at visitorsservices@peacegarden.com.
Feel free to snowshoe, hike, fat-tire bike and ski once the weather allows. Skiers are encouraged to park in the north parking lot that joins the terrace building at No. 5 on the map. Motorized vehicles are prohibited on trails, including snowmobiles.
