Beautiful conservatory and gardens, one of the finer attractions in Grand Rapids! The greenhouses and butterfly conservatory were our favorite parts. There's a gorgeous collection of plants on display, and lots of beautiful butterflies to see. However on the day we were there (Saturday afternoon) it was very crowded, almost shoulder-to-shoulder walking through the greenhouses. The indoor sculpture gallery left a lot to be desired - the collection itself was pretty small, and the captions were exceptionally cheesy and mostly talked about how cool and important Fred Meijer was. Most of the grounds outside were still under construction, and unfortunately we weren't able to walk around and see the larger sculpture displays this time. We would love to come back and enjoy the gardens outdoors.
