 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.

After eleven years of planning, friend-raising and fundraising, the botanical garden has a home at last! Located on 25 acres of land within the Historic Barns Park, on the site of the old Traverse City State Hospital, the garden encompasses a wide range of ecosystems, from meadows to woodlands to wetlands.
