Visit Dow Gardens During the Tulip Season is Exquisite!
I am in awe of Dow Gardens during tulip season. If you are unable to make it to Holland's Tulip Time Festival, I highly highly recommend visiting these gardens as the traffic is minimal, the tulips are everywhere in vast amounts perfect for photography and well, parking is abundant and close.
Visit the Nation's Longest Canopy Walk!
Near the Children's Garden is the long bridge that connects Dow Gardens to Whiting Forest. The views are amazing along the way!
Your entrance fee at Dow Gardens offers admission to Whiting Forest and the Nation's Longest Canopy Walk at no extra charge. So go check it out! You will feel what it's like to be a bird soaring four stories high!
Plan to spend at least two hours exploring Whiting Forest and America's Longest Canopy Walk! Lots of shade in the summer, very safe with high railings and lots of places to explore!
Visiting Dow Gardens During the Winter is Absolutely Stunning!
Why You Need to Visit During Dow Garden's Butterflies In Bloom!
I love Dow Gardens Butterflies in Bloom because spring is definitely in the air! Birds are chirping, chipmunks are scurrying and the trees are juuuust beginning to bloom. It's a great place to visit in Michigan!
Visiting the butterfly house at Dow Gardens in Midland, Michigan will get you outside, awaken your spirit and well, give you a bit of much needed fresh air. It's kind of a two for one...butterflies AND a chance to explore the gardens!
Plus the sunshine, thawing creek and chirping birds revives my soul! I'm sure it will do the same for you!
Dow Gardens Butterflies In Bloom is an explosion of your senses!! Watch stunning butterflies emerge from their chrysalis' and learn how to safely pick them up! Located in Midland, Michigan!
