Have a Hoot Hunt

Whoo, whooo hid all our squash this year?!

How many squash and pumpkins can you spot at Bloedel Reserve? If you’re visiting us this October, the answer is less than 100. Due to the long, wet spring and short, hot summer, our crop produced far less than we’d hoped!

Our woodland owls will lead you on an all-ages scavenger hunt through the gardens in search of gourds, squash and pumpkins! Stop, explore, and snap a photo of yourselves with our friendly garden guides. Guess the weight of our largest pumpkin this year at the Residence, and win prizes at the Shop at the Gatehouse when you complete the scavenger hunt.

Timed tickets are required for admission.
