The Greenville Children's Garden








Greenville is such a cool town. The downtown area has been revitalized over the past several years, and no space was overlooked. In an area under an interstate overpass, a group of volunteers has installed a children's garden. It is full of beautiful plants, storybook themed garden plots (Peter Rabbit, The Secret Garden, The Three Bears, etc.), fun statues, and most importantly, lots of interactive education for kids about horticulture. In a day and time when most kids spend little or no time in natural settings, it's neat way to expose kids to new experiences.
