The goal of Friends of Beacon Hill Park is "To Promote & Protect the Natural & Cultural History of Beacon Hill Park."
Beacon Hill Park was set aside as parkland by Governor Sir James Douglas before 1858.
The park is a historical treasure and one of the last refuges in Greater
Victoria for some of the area's most delicate and endangered native plants
and ecosystems. The Garry Oak tree and the Garry Oak meadow are two prime
examples of the plants and ecosystems that the Friends of Beacon Hill Park Society
are actively trying to preserve.
Camas Day 2011
Click Camas Day for details of the 2011 Camas Day that happened on Saturday April 30, 2011. This is the 20th year that we have held this event. We had a varied slate of popular walks. Of course, Beacon Hill Park is enjoyable to visit every day of the year.
Wildflowers Signs in Beacon Hill Park
There are 3 large wildflower signs created by the Friends of Beacon Hill Park in the area along Circle Drive between the Petting Zoo and the Totem Pole. You can use the signs to help you learn about the flowers that are currently blooming in the meadow.
