Community gardens are indeed wonderful spaces for gardeners. They provide opportunities for learning, sharing knowledge about organic gardening practices, and connecting with like-minded individuals who share a passion for gardening. It's a perfect environment to cultivate both plants and friendships.

What an amazing find, we went to see the old mental hospital and how it is being repurposed and found this gem next door. What beautiful gardens and so much fun history.

One of my favorite places to spend time surrounded by tranquil nature and beauty.
Located in the heart of Traverse City, The Botanic Garden is a year-round sanctuary of environmental preservation, recreation and education. Its 25 acres nurtures the soul, enlivens our history and promotes Michigan’s natural beauty.
With an emphasis on plant species native to northwest Michigan, it creates and enhances habitats for various forms of wildlife. As a place of refreshment and solace, The Botanic Garden’s unique and original design informs and inspires.
The grounds are open to the public year-round.
The visitors center and gift shop are open seasonally from May through October.
