About International Peace Gardens

The gardens occupy Jordan Park and are overseen by a nonprofit academy. Visitors can walk the grounds daily from early morning until late evening. Floral displays are at their peak from late spring through early fall. The academy runs citizen programs and a poetry and tea series. City council support has been recommended for a comprehensive restoration of the gardens, with work targeted for completion around the 70th anniversary in 2027.
