Had a great visit here and enjoyed the atmosphere of the garden. Met a few people here that were tagging the monarch butterflies before they head off to Mexico. Very fascinating, it's true, you learn something new everyday if you pay attention. Well maintained paths and gardens make this place a joy to walk around. The choices of flowers and colors was amazing and the staff were hard working, yet made time to answer questions about anything in the garden. I saw the most ingenious item on a light post in the park, I thought it was hand sanitizer but in fact it was a sunscreen dispenser. Very cool and very smart especially with the weather in August being so hot 🔥. Enjoyed my time here and i would recommend spending time here as well. Very relaxing atmosphere with some wildlife mixed in. Chipmunks and squirrels will eat right out of your hand..

Great view from the cliff inside the park, filled with flower plants and tall trees. Ideal for picnic or a quality time spend with family. Not a big park though but still worth visit. The pictures below are from fall.

This location is good for small picnics, walks, with a cool breeze from Lake Ontario along with musicals of waves. You can also view rose garden ( June 2 to last week) and scent garden ( where you can feel smell of flowers with earthy odour). Overall it’s amazing place for picnics, walks and meditation with pure air from trees( fork tree) , aesthetic smells of different flowers and cool breeze from the emerald green lake.
