This up-and-coming 46 acre Botanical garden in Green Bay was only opened to the public in 1996. The visitor center spans 8000 sq. feet. Many of the garden's plants are representative of Northeast Wisconsin and were selected for their ability to survive in its ever-changing climate.

The garden also hosts school tours, educational classes and workshops.The Gardens have three locations available for weddings: Kaftan Lusthaus (indoors, 50 guests), the Woodland Garden (150 guests) and the Kress Oval Garden (150 guests). Some of these facilities are also available for rental for other events.
