It is a nice walk. There was a field trip going on when we went and the kids looked like they had fun too. The cafe was open for lunch but it didn't have anything on the menu to interest me. Took about an hour to walk through and it had a mix of shady and sunny spots. Really liked the dinos too. Love the tree times newspaper

Thank you for the great review!
Lots of wildlife buzzing and chirping all thru out the well maintained gardens made for a very peaceful and calming walk. I needed it after sitting in rush hour traffic to catch the after 4 PM half off special!

This is a fantastic relatively new garden that’s already matured into a wonderful place to visit! I really enjoyed the summertime sculpture exhibition and all of the varied garden areas. I can tell this place is dynamic during all seasons and look forward to a return visit soon!

Thank you for sharing these amazing photos and for your kind review!
Lovely paths across all types of growing areas. Lots of walkers and dog friendly. The cafe has really nice options. We were there for a plant and vendor sale and both were quite nice with many options.

Thank you for sharing these wonderful photos and for the kind review! We're so glad you enjoyed the Artisan Market and hope you'll visit again soon.
The gardens are a pleasant escape and a great place to learn about native plants. They almost always have very nice artistic exhibits in the hallways of the main building. They frequently have outdoor exhibits throughout the gardens as well, often child friendly. We were fortunate to see the dinosaur exhibit comprised of metal dinosaurs crafted by a retired metal worker. Finally, you can take your dog to the gardens with you so long as you keep them leashed, out of the plants and clean up after you.
