Annual Rose Sale

February 13th & 20th | 10 AM – 2 PM

Red roses symbolize love and romance, making them popular Valentine’s Day gifts. But why not enjoy some love and romance year round? Like true love, old garden roses have stood the test of time. Goodwood’s old garden rose sale features dozens of beautiful and hearty varieties that thrive in north Florida. If you have enough romance in your life, you might want to consider pink (gratitude, grace, admiration, and joy), orange (enthusiasm and passion), yellow (friendship), or white (purity).

For the safety of our staff and volunteers, masks will be required for in-person shopping. Reserve your free 30-minute time slot to shop onsite Saturday, February 13th (10am-2pm) or Saturday, February 20th (10am-2pm). At only $10 per plant, you too can have more love, romance, gratitutde, grace, admiration, joy, enthusiasm, passion, friendship, and/or purity in your garden!

Pop-up Workshop:
Home Sweet Home

Tuesday, March 9th | 9:30-11 AM | $15

Did you know Goodwood has hosted hundreds of robins over the last few weeks while on their winter migration from the north? Enjoy a morning outside with your child as you explore and discover together how Goodwood Museum and its surrounding gardens provide a home for many of our state’s native plants, insects, and animals. Karen Gay, retired early childhood educator with over 30 years experience, shares her enthusiasm for teaching outdoors and hands-on discovery learning by singing songs, telling stories, walking among the trees, and taking time to enjoy the moment. Join her in building a community nest with items your child has found on your nature walk, creating colorful snail homes using pasta shells, and using observation skills to examine many abandoned animal homes on her discovery table.

Home Sweet Home programming is appropriate for children 3.5 to 5 years old and is designed for the caretaker to actively engage with the child throughout the program. One ticket is required for an adult/child pair.

Virtual Goodwood’s Got Game Nights!

Wednesday | March 10th | 4:30-5:30 PM

Just because we have to social distance, does not mean we have to give up socializing!  This is an opportunity to create memories through laughter and celebrate new traditions with your loved ones. Goodwood’s Got Game night is back this November, and while not all games can be played virtually, there are quite a few for number-loving and word-loving gamers that can be modified to provide some community interaction and downright virtual fun.

Test your cognitive health by exercising those brain cells with these quick-thinking games and puzzles. See if you can remember the old days by recalling popular bands of the decades or historic events, figure out movies from emojis or famous people by their silhouettes, or unscramble words you would find on a grocery list. Games will be designed to wake up and use all the parts of the mind, while also boosting our brain health through social interaction.  Please register to receive details and the Zoom program link.
