Visit Callaway Gardens FREE Jan through Feb 28, 2011

Enjoy complimentary admission to Callaway Gardens between January 1 and February 28, 2011.

For the third year, Callaway Gardens is inviting everyone to enjoy the simpler things in life such as spending time with family and friends.

It may be Winter but there are lots of fun things to do and see at Callaway Gardens such as witnessing butterflies emerging and taking flight in the warm, tropical Cecil B. Day Butterfly Center and exploring the beautiful John A. Sibley Horticultural Center with gorgeous floral displays. The Virginia Hand Callaway Discovery Center is offering a photography exhibit entitled “America Unnoticed – A Photographer’s Journey” by Patsy Epperson. This exhibit documents Epperson’s experience in nature throughout the country in different seasons. While visiting, get outdoors for a little exercise on one of the many walking trails or meander through the Gardens on the Discovery Bicycle Trail (bicycles are available for rent or bring your own). It’s amazing what wonders nature provides at this time of year.

For those who have visited Callaway Gardens before, we want to show our appreciation for their patronage and support our mission of connecting man and nature with this special offer. For those who have not had the opportunity, we want to invite them at no cost to the experience and discover Callaway Gardens.
