On Aug. 6, Bloedel Reserve will host Welcome Wednesday, its monthly pay-what-you-wish community day. Visitors are invited to explore the 140-acre garden and forest reserve with discounted admission while supporting the nonprofit through optional donations. Timed tickets are recommended and can be reserved in advance.
Later in the month, on Aug. 19, the reserve will hold a Mindfulness Meditation session at the Japanese Guest House, encouraging participants to practice compassionate awareness. Led by reserve member Alexa, the session will incorporate poetry and sound bowls.
