Sponsor the Children's Discovery Garden

The Florida Botanical Gardens Foundation presents the plans to build the new Children's Discovery Garden (CDG) at the Florida Botanical Gardens. We have been working on this project for the last year and a half, and we are very excited to announce it to the public.

To view the site plans, rendered images and learn more about the proposed Children's Discovery Garden, visit: www.flbgfoundation.org/childrensgarden.

The "Bromel-ometer" represents the FBGF's progress in raising funds to build the CDG. Donate directly to the project: www.flbgfoundation.org/CDGdonate.

Please Note: The Florida Botanical Gardens Foundation has made the difficult decision to cancel the annual Holiday Lights in the Gardens event, which was scheduled to fall on November 27, 2020 through January 2, 2021 this year.

The Gardens are decorated for the holidays, and we invite you to come during the day to enjoy them in all of their winter beauty. We will plan to be back in 2021– bigger and better than ever!
