B	Brandon Boyd on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A real gem in the heart of the city. Very inspiring to see a nature based garden.
T	Turner J. Dudzinski on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Gorgeous plants and cute animals running around. Plenty of shades seats and sunny viewpoints.
F	FLOWER ArkiteK on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A very nice and peaceful place, attached to another park. Long trails, lots to see. A good place for picnic, children runaround and just relax and enjoy the sun.
u	unsapien2009 on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's not much to look at right now in the beginning of spring, but life is coming back to the garden & soon it will be beautiful. Still I did see different birds during my walk through, including 2 cardinals & a red winged black bird. I think there are washroom facilities on site but with the current provincial lockdown they are probably not accessible as the visitors center is closed. Parking is free, but the maximum parking time is 90min. It's a gravel parking lot but if cars park smartly you could fit about 20 on-site. There is metered $ parking not too far away though on the agricultural museum parking lot across the street. Dogs are allowed but must be kept under control.
S	Shannon O'Brien-LeBlanc on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Gorgeous scenery and well maintained. It gets a bit busy mid day but theres plenty of space to keep socially distant. Be mindful of photos (not spending too long in one area when other people are waiting to get in, not getting to close to others/photobombing, avoiding areas where special events like wedding or engagement photo shoots are taking place). Just follow the rules and maintain your distance from others and it makes it a great experience for everyone.
M	Mark Eccleston on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice area next to the canal. Large variety of birds. Easy walk to the arboretum. Lots of off leash dogs.
H	H “Mrshpq” on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Our first visit to this garden today. Very cold so just a short walk.Seems like an interesting and educational place but not too much to see today. Will come back in better weather
O	Oksana K. on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Lovely spot for a bit of birdwatching. There's something every season - cardinals, chickadees, doves, hummingbirds, juncos... The list goes on. It's a small spot with three benches and multiple paths out to Dows Lake Arboretum and the nearby trails.
