Denver Botanic Gardens
Denver Botanic Gardens
Denver Botanic Gardens is one of the most visited and well-loved botanical gardens in the United States. Accredited by the American Alliance of Museums, the Gardens’ living collections encompass specimens from the tropics to the tundra, showcasing a plant palette chosen to thrive in Colorado’s semi-arid climate. The Gardens’ York Street location is a dynamic, 24-acre urban oasis in the heart of the city, offering garden experiences for the whole family, as well as world-class education and plant conservation research programs. While most of the gardens highlight Colorado native plants, there are beautiful gardens designed to showcase plants from around the globe. Special events, art exhibits and guided tours take place throughout the year.
At the Chatfield Farms location in Littleton, the experience is quite different though no less spectacular. Set on 700 acres tucked against the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, Chatfield Farms is home to a historical homestead and working farm, with stunning native gardens, buildings dating back to the 1800s, and miles of nature trails. Popular seasonal events - such as Lavender Festival, Corn Maze and Trail of Lights - make this a prime destination to visit throughout the year.
