With exhibits designed to inspire visitors to create their own beautiful, drought-tolerant gardens, there’s something for everyone. Explore the Native Habitat Garden, the Compost Exhibit, the Veggie Garden, and the Succulent Garden for ideas and inspiration. Typical time spent at The Garden, 2-3 hours.
