Bamboo Farm and Coastal Gardens

The Bamboo Farm and Coastal Gardens is a botanical garden in Savannah featuring bamboo groves, ornamental plant collections, and multiple themed garden areas. The grounds include walking paths, observation areas, berry fields, and lakeside settings spread across the property.

The site began as a research station for introducing new plant species and was later transformed into a public botanical garden. This shift from agricultural research to public garden reflected changing approaches to preserving and sharing plant knowledge.

The garden serves as a learning space for horticulture and plant science, where you can see how plants are cultivated and displayed for education. Different sections show how the grounds connect local communities to nature and seasonal traditions.

The garden is easy to explore on foot with clear pathways and plenty of spots to rest along the way. Plan to spend several hours wandering between the different plant collections and themed sections to see the full range.

The garden holds one of the largest outdoor palm collections in this region, with species that survive freezing winters. These cold-hardy palms demonstrate how tropical plants have adapted to thrive in a colder climate.
