Founded in 1999, the Columbus Botanical Garden is a 22-acre facility which provides visitors with the unique opportunity to enjoy an attractive venue and colorful setting for photography, special events, horticultural seminars and community learning.  While visiting the garden, guests might enjoy hiking the recently developed Joann Holt Walking Trail or strolling through the display gardens that showcase plant species suitable for the Columbus area.  Our mission is "to preserve a portion of the rapidly diminishing open space in Columbus and to provide the public with a unique educational facility that is based on environmental awareness, horticulture, historic preservation and agricultural values.  This facility shall strive to inspire and leave a lasting impression on those who visit."  The Columbus Botanical Garden is open daily with free admission.  So, we invite you to come and learn with us and watch our garden grow!
