Children's Secret Path at York Street

Especially for kids: Get your hands dirty in the soil station!
It's a fact: The alligator drum and giant amadinda are musical instruments made from plants.
Botanical interest: Children are encouraged to interact with plants, including smelling fragrant chives (Allium schoenoprasum), touching lamb’s ear (Stachys byzantina) and soft artemisia (Artemisia schmidtiana ‘Silver Mound’).
Looking for a fun way to entertain the kids on Saturdays or Sundays? Registration for Family Days at the Gardens is now open. Only $1 per child when you
pre-register.
