Discover Garden Day at Phipps Conservatory! by Hayley Martin

Sometimes even the most spirited children can be tamed in the serenity of a garden while learning about plants, bugs, and the environment.  That’s just what my daughter did on at Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens in Pittsburgh, PA for their annual children’s event – Discover Garden Day.

Throughout the entire conservatory, the gardens had added bonuses for children on July 9 and it all began at the ticket taker who handed my daughter a bingo board filled with hidden treasures to find throughout the garden like specific plants, waterfalls, and even a giant panda bear.
