Sakura in High Park is a website dedicated to tracking the progress of the cherry blossoms in High Park, Toronto. The overall goal is to share the progress through photography, video and blog posts that will inform everyone of the best time to visit High Park and enjoy the trees' beauty in peak bloom.

The website first launched on April 1, 2012, as a blog that focused on tracking the progress of the cherry blossoms in High Park.

This website and all social media channels are run by Steven Joniak, aka “Sakura Steve”. He creates and produces all the content included on the site and social media sites, including photos, videos and copywriting.

After being disappointed with the lack of information and resources on when the cherry blossoms bloom in High Park, I decided to build the Sakura in High Park website in 2012. I set out to be the best resource in Toronto that would educate and inform other blossom enthusiasts on the progress of the trees from bud to bloom.

No. This website is not associated in any official capacity with High Park Nature Centre or the City of Toronto. It is an entirely independent blog designed to help to educate and inform visitors about the annual cherry blossom bloom in High Park.

Advertisement banners are placed throughout the website to help pay for the time and fees required to run this website and social media pages. I am not paid any salary and do this out of my own free time and money, which helps cover some of the costs like web hosting, travel time, etc.
