About: Quarryhill is a 25-acre botanical garden of mature, flowering plants from Asia. Magnolias, dogwoods, maples, birches, roses, lilies, rhododendrons, and many others grace the garden's paths with hidden places to sit and relax, while surrounded by ponds, waterfalls, and vistas of the Sonoma Valley. We welcome visitors year round to enjoy our Asian woodland garden, where all seasons in the garden have their own beauty.
+ We enjoyed a group walk to the Japanese pond area where the kids played, jumping bridges, fueling up on snacks before heading back for lunch at the picnic table area near the parking lot and visitor center. Highly recommend this beautiful spot for a serene day out, or to bring out of town visitors — they’re sure to be impressed.
