This place is a bit of heaven on Earth. There is something for everyone, all ages, all interests, all abilities. If you have small children and live nearby, a membership here will save your sanity and make many fun memories in the children's garden, the farm garden and in exploration around the grounds. You will never be bored. Be sure wee ones have sunscreen and swimwear because there are water features that they will want to splash a bit in. If you don't have kids (or want a place to escape from yours), an individual membership grants you access to a lovely place to get away from it all without having to go too far from home. The Wege Nature Trail, the shade garden, the wetlands boardwalk, the glorious tropical conservatory, the sculpture walks, and of course the famous Japanese Garden, are all just a glipse of the treasures to enjoy here. No wonder this is listed as one of the "1,000 places to see before you die."
