Yakima Area Arboretum, Botanical garden and learning center in Yakima, United States.
The Yakima Area Arboretum extends across 46 acres, featuring collections of native and exotic woody plants alongside natural wetlands and the Yakima River.
The land transformed from wetlands to farms in the 19th century before the Yakima Metro District established the arboretum in 1967.
The facility maintains a herbarium for research purposes and presents multiple themed gardens including Japanese, butterfly, and rose collections.
Visitors can access the arboretum from Interstate 82 by taking exit 34 and following Nob Hill Boulevard to Birchfield Road.
The Sol Shine Nature Preschool operates within the grounds, integrating early childhood education with direct exposure to plant varieties and natural environments.
