The International Peace Garden is nestled in the Turtle Mountains along the 49th parallel south of Boissevain, Manitoba and north of Dunseith, North Dakota. Its 2,390 acres of aspen forest and prairie grassland is home to 25 acres of formal gardens, a sunken garden featuring a diversity of perennials and flowering shrubs, and a Cactus Conservatory. Established in 1932, the Garden plants up to 150,000 annuals in new designs every year, with features including a floral clock. Among our attractions, the International Music and Athletic Camps host thousands of youth each summer from around the world.

Spring in the Gardens
After what has been a very long winter for many Canadians, spring is finally well on its way. Tree buds are swelling, spring bulbs are bursting into bloom and there is a scent of spring in the air, but are you missing it? You just can’t soak up the earthy, greeny smells of spring from your armchair: you’ve got to get outdoors. And why not do so in one of Canada’s public gardens?
