Get Out in the Garden<br />
The idea of the garden is that it can be both a<br />
basic introduction to the natural and cultural history<br />
of Clayoquot Sound, and a place where the<br />
relationship between culture and nature can be<br />
explored. A COVID-friendly way to spend a day<br />
in Tofino “just to set the heart free.” Now open<br />
seven days a week, from dawn to dusk.<br />
