豊平公園

Toyohira Park is a public park in Sapporo covering about 7 hectares with several themed gardens featuring roses, conifers, and flower beds throughout the grounds. The site also includes tennis courts and a two-story greenhouse that serves as the Green Center.

The park opened in 1977 on land that was previously used as a forestry testing ground by Japan's Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, and Fisheries. The former experimental site was transformed into a public recreation area with gardens and sport facilities.

The Green Center in the park functions as a place where visitors attend gardening classes and exchange information about plants with staff and other gardeners. People bring seeds and seedlings to share or discover new varieties suited to their gardens.

The park is open daily except Mondays, with free admission and parking available for visitors at no cost. It is helpful to check opening hours before your visit, as times may vary slightly by season.

The Green Center within the park functions as a plant exchange hub where visitors can donate or receive trees and plants from others. This exchange system connects people looking to share their garden surplus with those seeking specific plants for their homes.
