Join us for an awesome Thyme Garden event!
We host several great events throughout the year, starting in early spring with our Earth Day Celebration, then Art in the Garden in May and wrapping up with our Fall Salmon Celebration in autumn. We also host summer tours and luncheons and rent our beautiful venue for weddings and other special events like baby showers or reunions.

The Thyme Garden’s Art in the Garden Mother’s Day Festival is a favorite for regional gardeners and residents and we sincerely hope you can join us in 2023!
The festival features artists, food and music against the backdrop of The Thyme Garden’s 2-acre display gardens and 80 acres of rambling forest paths.

Finish the summer season with a unique experience you will never forget!
The night begins with a memorable experience of strolling through the Gardens sipping a glass of wine as darkness slowly creeps in and the herbs release their exotic nighttime fragrances. Followed by a delicious herbal feast and live music. After dinner and a round of sinful desserts we will take our traditional night walk through the forest....and....then the fun really begins. There is also a campfire with straw bales to sit on and finish off the evening with your friends. Don't miss your only opportunity this summer to experience the other side of the Garden.
