The Garden is a place for connecting people with plants and each other. Generations of families visit to celebrate and make memories. Beautiful gardens, such as the A.R. and Marylouise Tandy Floral Terraces, not only offer opportunities for escape, contemplation and inspiration, but also serve as a living collection of plant life for research and conservation.

This living collection acts as an outdoor classroom for exploring plant adaptations, life cycles, and interrelationships in nature. Groups from pre-K to college utilize the Garden for hands-on investigation and experiential learning. Dynamic educational programming sparks curiosity in the natural world with visitors of all ages.
