Botanical Art Garden
The Botanical Art Garden, nicknamed the Barden, began as a jumble of fallen trees and invasive species, and has evolved into an award-winning combination of nature and culture, with labeled native plants, art, and whimsy. Learn the improbable story of how this collaboration with nature came to be and continues to evolve.
