CVRG Work Parties – “Dormant for the Season!”
Unless otherwise announced, the cleanup work parties at the Comox Valley Rhododendron Garden (CVRG) have come to an end for the winter months. We expect the spring cleanup work to resume in March 2025. Thank you to all our members who have helped keep the gardens look spectacular this year!
Milner Gardens and Woodland “Opening Delayed”
While it’s beautiful to look at, the recent snowfall has caused both site safety concerns and operational delays for the Gardens while we prepare to reopen to our valued members, visitors and stakeholders. We will need to postpone our reopening date to Friday, February 14th.
The Gardens will be open Fridays and Saturdays from 11:00am-3:00pm with viewing until 3:30pm starting Friday, February 14th.
