Norfolk Botanical Garden

I visited during the honey bee festival and had a great time. There were a lot of free and fun activities and a good amount of swag to earn. I went home with a bag full of goodies and newfound knowledge of pollinators. The garden itself is massive and full of beautiful flowers and trees. We took the tram and were delighted with our tour guide Morgan. She was informative, friendly, and fun. Also, I’d recommend going to the smokehouse food truck. The jerk chicken with peas and beans was amazing

This place is such a beautiful wonderland of nature. I love walking through the trails and seeing so many different structures, fountains, flowers, and a variety of plants and ponds. There are various places to sit and enjoy the scenery around you. It is very kid-friendly and perfect for families to enjoy a nice stroll together. I love it so much that I will be holding my wedding there in the near future!

I enjoy all things outdoors, and my first visit to the Botanical Garden was for a friend’s wedding. I loved it so much that I purchased a family membership plan afterward. The gardens are beautiful, peaceful, and well maintained. I especially enjoy visiting with my dogs and riding my bike through the grounds. The children’s area is fantastic, with plenty of hands-on learning tools, interactive exhibits, and water play features that keep kids engaged while they learn and explore. It’s a great place for families to spend quality time together. Whether you’re looking for a relaxing day alone, a fun family outing, or a place to connect with nature, this garden has something for everyone. Highly recommended! 🪴⛲️🐞💓👍🏾

It’s such a wonderful garden! Very big, always finding new areas! Beautiful and looks different every time I go through the seasons. Annual Membership is absolutely worth it! Getting a map is key, you can spend hours there going on the smaller paths and finding new different bench’s to have a break on. The trolly ride helps you see even more, and is very informative, as they give commentary of its history and flora and fauna (runs through the summer season). Gift shop is lovely and members get 10% off. They also have different shows/ sales throughout the year like orchid- always spectacular. Facilities are good, toilets at 3 different areas in the garden. And water filling at the main entrance. Butterfly garden runs for a couple months and the staff / volunteers are always so helpful and informative. Also it offers classes and evening events through the summer. Well worth visiting!
