The Lake Wilderness Arboretum
is located in Maple Valley, Washington
adjacent to Lake
Wilderness Park.
In addition to its focus on Northwest
native plants, the Arboretum features
one of the world's largest collections
of Western Azalea (Rhododendron
occidentale). The Arboretum's urban forest and cultivated gardens provide
the backdrop for educational and passive recreational
opportunities that are readily available and free to the public.
Maintenance and ongoing development of the Arboretum, as well as a rich set of educational programs, is carried out
by the
Lake Wilderness Arboretum Foundation in partnership with
the City of Maple Valley.

Join us in the Lake Wilderness Arboretum Nursery and learn how to create a beautiful fall or holiday wreath. Specific day and fees TBD.
These wreaths are very easy to make and the frames are usable for several seasons. We will spend some time collecting greenery and fall leaves from the Arboretum to use to make your own ornamental wreath. Pre-registration is required. More info.
Volunteer Opportunities
Regularly scheduled work sessions at the Arboretum provide a variety of volunteer opportunities for individuals or groups. Weekly, on Wednesdays, "Branches" works on landscaping tasks. On Thursdays, "TWIGS" meets for plant propagation, potting, and other nursery-related tasks, and on the first Saturday of each month, we have a community work party. Check our Event List for times. Other opportunities can be arranged by contacting us.
