Silent Space

We have a designated Silent Space among the Coastal Redwoods (Sequoia sempervirens).  These magnificent trees were planted in 1988 and have formed a secluded and shaded space ideal for enjoying a time of reflection.  Alternatively, we invite you to find your own Silent Space on one of the many benches sited in the glades throughout the garden.  This is an ideal place to turn off your phone, connect with nature and enjoy some time away from the busy world.
