Tom Swan in Baldwin

The Baldwin City demonstration garden is located in Tom Swan Park, in the very center of our charming downtown.  It features brick pathways, stone benches, an entryway framed by an arbor, a small patio, and a shady seating area. The main garden is devoted to plants that attract pollinators, most of them native to our region. Another area is shaded by a beautiful maple tree that is under planted with hostas and other shade loving plants. Raised beds contain herbs and bulbs. The borders of the garden are lined with a variety of shrubs, and a sunny corner is designed to attract birds.  Master gardeners work to demonstrate how a wide wide variety of perennial and annual plants may be grown in a small, heavily used space.  We encourage you to visit!
