Yes and no. Your Individual Membership is only for you. That is, only you get free admission privileges. Of course you can bring a guest. But your guest will need to have a paid admission ticket for entry.

Yes. Timed tickets are recommended for everyone visiting the Reserve. Timed Tickets make it possible for us to keep an accurate count of everyone on the Reserve at any one time. If you are a member, of course your tickets are free. The number of free tickets you get is based on your membership level. You can book your timed tickets here.

You’ll find a complete list of membership benefits here.

Yes. The first and last timed ticket slots of the day are reserved for members.

And from May to September, we are extending our hours on the second Friday of the month, just for members. The Reserve will be open until 8 PM on those days, and members will be able to book tickets for summer early evening walks.

Please note: All ticket time slots are filled on a first-come-first-served basis.

Bloedel Reserve memberships and membership benefits are exclusively for non-commercial use by members. Member admission tickets and privileges are non-transferable and non-refundable.

The name(s) listed on your membership card are the authorized users of the Bloedel membership. Individual Memberships have one name on the membership card. All other membership categories list two names on the membership card. At least one named member must be present in order to use timed tickets to visit the Reserve. Members may be asked to present identification at the front gate prior to entry.

As a Bloedel Reserve member, you also have reciprocal membership privileges at participating gardens around the country through the American Horticultural Society. To find out where you can use your membership, use the interactive map and search function here.
