In fulfillment of our mission to connect people with plants and provide access to year-round educational and recreational experiences for everyone in our community, we’re excited to offer an opportunity made possible by a grant from Howard Suamico Optimist Club to experience the new Carol & Bruce Bell Children’s Garden. This area offers many areas of play, including the Fischer Family Lily Pad Splash Play area, the K.C. Stock Foundation Mushroom Jumper Play area, the sprawling Green Bay Packaging George Kress Foundation Tree Houses, and so much more! There’s truly something for everyone to enjoy.

There are also many opportunities for connecting with nature and learning about our environment - from critters in our wetlands and birds helping plant seeds, to glaciers and caves across the Niagara Escarpment. The Bell Children’s Garden is open during regular Garden hours during the year.

Nonprofit organizations wishing to apply for consideration, submit the application below by Friday, July 19. We will notify selected recipients the week of July 22, 2024.
