The Gardens of Southeastern North Carolina, a non-profit botanical garden, is committed to improving lives and nurturing creativity through the wonders of nature. Spanning over 300 acres of land, our aspiration is to establish ourselves as a premier destination for plant and nature enthusiasts, event goers, families, and people of all ages!
We warmly welcome the public to explore The Gardens from Monday to Friday, between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM, as well as on Saturdays from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM. Additionally, don't forget to check our events calendar for special hours and family-friendly activities!
Join us for a special evening at The Gardens of Southeastern North Carolina on Thursday, June 5th from 4–7 PM. Enjoy a relaxed stroll through the gardens alongside our lead horticulturist Karen Root and the owner of The Gardens, as they share expert tips, seasonal highlights, and favorite plant picks.
Prepare yourself for an electrifying farm-to-table experience! Roll up your sleeves, get dirty, and learn to create a mouthwatering pizza, using ingredients harvested directly from the fields.
The Gardens of Southeastern North Carolina is located in the heart of beautiful Pender County!
