The Gardens at Heather Farm resides on six acres and showcases 3.5 acres of developed gardens. A Certified Wildlife Habitat and Certified Green Business, the gardens demonstrate sustainable gardening practices such as integrated pest management and water conserving practices.   Today, no toxins are used in the gardens.  Visitors are amazed to see 1,000 healthy rose bushes without the use of any pesticides or chemicals.

Visitors can enjoy a broad range of plants situated in more than twenty-four demonstration gardens and learning sites, all with handicapped accessible pathways.

A living museum and outdoor classroom, the gardens serve both students and teachers who use the gardens and adjacent pond for research and study.  Home gardeners benefit from the "demonstration gardens" themselves while photographers and artists find seasonal, if not daily, inspiration.
