Memphis Botanic Garden

I visited one of my favorite places this past weekend. Hidden in Memphis, TN is the Memphis Botanic Garden, a beautiful, well-kept, 96 acre property full of a variety of flowers, plants, and trees. I have been going since I was a child and I feel privileged to have seen the garden change and grow over the years. Recent additions have made it more educational and local schools often go to be outdoors and learn about nature through hands-on activities. My favorite part of the garden has always been the Japanese Koi fish pond. The Koi are so used to visitors that you can actually hand feed them and when fish food is thrown into the water a feeding frenzy ensues...Enjoy!
