Botanical Garden of the Ozarks

The Botanical Garden of the Ozarks sits along a lake with multiple garden spaces showcasing different plant collections and themed areas. Visitors walk through paths that display the natural vegetation characteristic of the region.

The garden grew from small private garden projects in the 1990s that were later combined into a larger public initiative. This development shows how local efforts expanded into a regional green space.

The garden maintains bilingual educational signage in English and Spanish, focusing on pollinator habitats and native plants of the Arkansas Ozarks region.

The grounds are accessible on foot with well-marked paths suited to visitors of all ages. Plan enough time to walk comfortably through the different garden areas.

The Weather Station monitors the garden's microclimate while the Borrowed Backpack Program provides educational tools for young visitors to study birds, bugs, and flowers.
