The six total gardens at Elm Bank reservation include:

Dell Garden

Foggy Bottom Garden

A series of small spiraling gardens, each giving visitors the opportunity to plant, water or interact in some way with the garden's elements. Children's classes are held throughout the spring, summer and fall in this special garden.
