The Botanical Garden Society of Northwest Michigan (BGSNM) is a non-profit organization that, since 2000, has been working to create a regional botanic garden in northwest Michigan. We have finalized an agreement with the Traverse City-Garfield Township Recreational Authority to establish a 25-acre public garden on a portion of a 54-acre parcel of land at the Commons, a lovely site within the city limits of Traverse City.

The Historic Barns Park on the grounds of the Grand Traverse Commons is home to the newly evolving Botanic Garden of Northwest Michigan. The Recreational Authority of Traverse City & Garfield Township, owners of the Park, and the Botanical Garden Society of Northwest Michigan, manager of 25 acres within the Park, are partnering on a $1.5 million capital campaign to raise revenues to restore the beautiful Cathedral Barn for public events and build the first phase of the Botanic Garden.
