Our Botanical Gardens Expert Says:
An unspoken gratitude may move your spirit as you wander through the 55 "amazing acres" at Thanksgiving Point Gardens in Lehi. Utah landscape architect Leonard Grassli has created a number of unique and gorgeous gardens including the Creek Garden, Monet Garden, Secret Garden, Waterfall Garden, Vista Garden, and the Children's Discovery Garden. Even adult visitors may very well feel as if they have stepped into a magical scene from Mary Poppins as they walk over the Monet Bridge, which stretches over a flower-bordered creek. As your visit's grand finale, you can stop off at the largest man-made waterfall in the Western Hemisphere, housed in the gardens' amphitheater and then sip tea or coffee in the Garden Trellis café as you absorb the sprawling green and varicolored fineries. Also on the grounds of Thanksgiving Point are a golf course, a historic village, the North American Museum of Ancient Life, and entertaining, educational Farm Country. The gardens are open year-round, Monday-Saturday.

Designed to be a peaceful place where the gifts of nature could be appreciated, Thanksgiving Garden covers 55 acres.
