Plants are great, but it's the people that make our garden special.
Spring bulbs are some of the earliest bloomers, providing much needed food sources for pollinators. Choose from a variety of bulbs and plant them before the snow flies for pops of color and happy pollinators come spring!
Bringing together the time honored gardening traditions of seed saving with hands-on practice, this workshop offers a unique learning experience in how to identify, harvest, and store seeds from Olbrich Gardens. Wander the garden, learn about each plant and its particular seed, and help harvest seeds for future use in the gardens. Gardeners of any skill level will enjoy using seed saving and seed sharing as a way to connect with others and to pass on generations of history and traditions.
GLEAM, an annual outdoor art exhibit, features large scale light installations created by local, regional, and international designers. Take an enchanting stroll through Olbrichs 16-acre garden and tropical Bolz Conservatory after dark and see the Gardens in a whole new light!
