Leaming's Run Gardens, Botanical garden in Cape May County, New Jersey
Leaming's Run Gardens spans 30 acres of land with 25 themed sections, including perennial gardens, fruit trees, and native plant collections alongside ponds and woodlands.
The gardens, established in 1977 by Jack and Emily Aprill, incorporated the colonial Thomas Leaming House from the 18th century, preserving local maritime heritage.
The garden offers educational programs about sustainable gardening practices and environmental stewardship while maintaining diverse plant collections for community engagement.
The garden operates from June through September, with admission fees ranging from free for children under 6 to $8 for adults over 18.
During August, the gardens become a rest stop for ruby-throated hummingbirds during their southern migration pattern.
