tofino botanical gardens

Tofino is located on the West Coast of Vancouver Island, Canada. We live on a penninsula surrounded by pristine sandy beaches, deep silent coves, temperate rainforests and limitless views of snow capped mountains. It is an awe-inspiring, rugged, profoundly beautiful place.

 

"Out beyond ideas of right and wrong doing there is a field. When the soul lies down in that grass, the world is too full to talk about ideas, language, even the phrase each other doesn't make any sense."

-Rumi
