The Delaware Botanic Gardens (DBG) reopened to the public today, signaling the commencement of a new era of horticultural exploration in the First State.
DBG, Delaware’s first public botanic garden, offers a unique opportunity for visitors to experience a range of native and cultivated plants in a lush, natural setting. A broad selection of flora, fauna, and wildlife await visitors, with a focus on promoting the conservation and appreciation of the state’s ecology and environment.
The grand opening of the gardens, which covers 37 acres, will feature a number of special events and activities. Gardening workshops, educational programs, and guided hikes are all scheduled to take place over the coming weeks and months. Additionally, DBG will be showcasing the work of local artists, with installations and displays of artwork throughout the grounds.
The gardens are the result of the collective effort of the Delaware Botanic Gardens Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving and protecting natural resources in the state. With the help of fundraising and donations, the foundation has worked tirelessly to create a beautiful and educational environment for the public to enjoy.
The grand opening of DBG marks a milestone in Delaware’s commitment to environmental stewardship and conservation. As the state continues to strive towards a more sustainable future, the gardens will provide an opportunity for citizens to reconnect with nature and gain an appreciation of the natural world.
