Shephard's Garden in Port McNeill, Vancouver Island, Canada | Garden

Welcome to Shephard's Garden, and take a brief tour of the family garden that Marilyn and Bill Shephard have created out by the Nimpkish River, near Port McNeill, British Columbia, Canada.
Shephard's Garden includes three and one half acres of perennials, animals, shrubs, trees, and a food garden. It is filled with wonderful plants. Enjoy a relaxing walk-through. In addition to the garden there is a unique forest Trail taking you to the Nimpkish River.
All proceeds from the voluntary collection help our garden grow.
Most of our visitors to Shephard's Garden in Port McNeill, British Columbia, take time to walk down our trail to the river, through a forest of second growth trees to a couple of old growth firs and cedars that were here when George Vancouver visited the Namgis band in the late eighteenth century. The trail is lines with ferns and the beginning of our shaded rhododendron garden. There are five species of migrating salmon that go up the river toward the lakes and, occasionally, visitors can see jumping fish and the seals that are chasing them.
Drop in for a visit, the dogs at Shephard's Garden, whose job is to keep the deer and bears out of the garden, are friendly.
