This 12-acre garden is a delight for any age.
Highfield Discovery Garden will open Tuesday, June 23. The health and safety of our employees and guests are our highest priority. Great Parks staff continues to take precautionary steps and make service adjustments in response to the latest information from the Ohio Department of Health. If you are sick or exhibiting any symptoms, please stay home and visit another day. Guests are required to wear a mask to enter buildings and when outdoors and unable to consistently maintain a distance of 6 feet or more from individuals who are not members of their household. Please take advantage of our hand sanitizer stations throughout the garden and visitor center and help us minimize groups of more than 10 congregating together.
It is designed to encourage guests to explore the natural world in a fun, engaging environment. Along with the 25-foot Discovery Tree, there are seven smaller gardens to explore within Highfield Discovery Garden:
Frog & Toads Garden: Look closely among the lily pads and you’ll see they are surrounded by frogs.
Wizard’s Garden: Pass the purple hat, don’t wake the dragon and take the bouncy bridge to the fairy garden.
Trolley Garden: Four, small scale trains run on tracks surrounding some of your favorite storybook characters.
Vegetable Garden: Raised beds will put you at eye level with common and not-so-common vegetables.
Grandma’s Scent Garden: You’ll be surrounded by smelly plants for your pretend tea party here.
Morph Garden: The caterpillars in this garden are huge!
Butterfly Garden: This garden is shaped like its favorite resident.
