Details: Succulents are plants with unique, fleshy leaves that store water inside. They come in a variety of shapes and colors, and are easy to care for. Drop in to create your own adorable indoor succulent bowl! All ages welcome with parental supervision.
Spring and summer abound with family fun. Play in our kids’ playhouse, then come inside to sample one of our artisan gelato flavors and visit our koi fish. Browse for flowers to start a pollinator patch or pick out vegetable plants and help your kids grow their own food! Learn more about veggie gardening with kids on our blog.
Celebrate fall with our “pumpkin patch” featuring pumpkins and gourds of all colors, shapes, and sizes. Plus, vote for your favorites in our employee scarecrow contest!
The holidays are a magical time at Swansons, featuring thousands of holiday lights, the very best Christmas trees, and a holiday pavilion filled with unique ornaments and gifts.
