“established in 1899”
The Dow Gardens were started in 1899 by Herbert Dow, founder of The Dow Chemical Company. The Gardens, originally developed on eight acres of flat, sandy land, provided a creative outlet for Herbert Dow’ and his interest in agriculture and design. He created gardens, ponds and hills according to a simple philosophy that we still follow to this day: “never reveal the gardens’ whole beauty at first glance.”
Having an area that expands over 110 acres. The place is well arranged and the plants and flowers are carefully and beautifully arranged and maintained. Also the arrangement of the White Pines around the place is just quiet breathtaking. Also the bridges around the area are quiet impressive.
This place is beautiful what can I say. Dow outdid himself and really gave back to the community here.
