Do you know about this sprawling garden of unusual plant collections and fantastical sculptures? Using recycled and upcycled materials, the owners have been sculpting their large property for decades. Expect to do lots of walking on this self-guided tour to view such sights as a Medieval castle, Hobbit Town, a bamboo forest, and others. Recommended time to spend at the garden is 2 to 3 hours. Since each of us will have our own transportation, we may stay or leave as we wish, depending on our personal schedules. There is no food for purchase on the property, but visitors may bring their own lunches and enjoy a picnic at the available tables. Restrooms are available. No glass, pets, or alcohol allowed.
