Smith-Gilbert Gardens
About this place
A 17-acre botanical garden in Kennesaw built around an 1880s house, with woodland paths connecting separate garden areas including a bonsai exhibit, camellia garden, butterfly house, Japanese maple grove, and koi ponds. Families can walk through the grounds to see thousands of plant varieties, many uncommon in American gardens, along with 31 sculptures positioned throughout. The garden runs seasonal exhibits and programs such as toddler time and gardening classes for children. The site is designated a wildlife sanctuary and maintains sustainable practices to support pollinators.
If you are a member here

Reciprocal programs are built for travel and most exclude places close to the one where you hold your membership, so this is worth the most when you are away from home. How reciprocal memberships work
