The Botanic Garden is a work in progress and fun to see a few times a year to see the different plants, weeds, trees, birds and the changes that happen with the change of seasons. there are 460 acres of abandoned farm and mining land that is being transform. It will take years to complete but a real asset to the area. I think they will finally have about 18 different gardens. Currently there are about 3 miles of trails. There is a short film you can watch that is useful. The dogwood meadow and the lotus pond area are very interesting. They are developing kids areas so they can play and learn.
