The Magical Attraction In Arkansas You Have To See To Believe
Springtime is just around the corner, and I’m sure you’re penciling in all the things you’ll want to do after the weather allows you to spend more time outdoors. We are the Natural State, of course, and that means there are a million ways for you to spend time outside. One of those ways of taking in the best of the Natural State will give you an experience you really have to see to believe. Garvan Woodland Gardens is a sprawling botanical garden managed by the University of Arkansas where you can stroll through hundreds of picturesque acres to see a wonderland unlike any other.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/
If you want to see a sea of daffodils this spring, Garvan Woodland Gardens is definitely the place to be. There are 235 varieties of Narcissus on Daffodil Hill, and they'll be blooming in late February and early March.

If you were to visit her, she'd try to feed you cornbread.
