Another reason to visit the Matthaei Botanical Gardens

We've been visiting the Matthaei Botanical Gardens for as long as I remember.



My mom took my brother and me as kids,



we had our firstborn's baby pictures taken there,



and now we try to go once a season.



The indoor tropical conservatory is a soothing respite from the cold, gray winter.

And the sprawling gardens outdoors are a creative place to spend a summer morning.  They have beekeeping workshops, plant sales, and walking trails.



There are photo ops at every turn.



 And now, their gift shop is carrying My Detroit Garden!



Thanks, Matthaei, for supporting my little book!
