​

NPBGS is actively raising funds for the Japanese Garden. We initiated fundraising in 2022 with a direct appeal to some of our past supporters.

NPBGS continues to raise funds and develop the Japanese garden in phases. 

Phase 1: the Japanese Entry Dry Garden along 28th Ave N, as seen in our photo, was completed in 2022. Phase 2 was constructed and completed in 2023. This work included earth contouring & grading, irrigation, pathway construction, and grass seeding.  

 

As of August 2023, we raised about 70% of the Phase 2 Construction of the estimated costs. The balance of Phase 2 costs was covered by NPBGS reserve funds.

 

We continue to seek funding so that we can grow and develop the Japanese Garden. 

​

The Japanese Garden Construction Phases are:

• Phase Two: Site Development (83,400 sf)     

• Phase Three: Plant Material                          

• Phase Four: Rock Material                            

• Phase Five: Structures (Trellis; Gazebos)      

• Phase Six: Utilities                                         

• Phase Seven: Ponds and Streams                  

• Phase Eight: Filter Equipment                       

• Phase Nine: Bridges (three)        

                   

TOTAL COST ESTIMATES: $1,065,738

​

These total cost estimates do not include construction of a potential Pavilion Building, but they reflect the core costs for construction of the Japanese Garden.

grow and develop the Japanese Garden.
