About the Garden

This garden features an elevated boardwalk which meanders through 7 acres of natural wetlands. Stone pathways traverse a forested hillside, and visitors can enjoy the sounds of water at Serenity Falls - a re-circulating waterfall - while viewing the many varieties of plants, birds, and other wildlife inhabiting the area.

The garden is open year-round. Admission is free.

The City of Greensboro provides dedicated garden staff to manage and oversee each of Greensboro’s gardens.

Greensboro Beautiful provides support to new and ongoing enhancements in the gardens through private donations from the community.

For more information on the garden, contact 336-373-4544.
