Franklin Park Conservatory In Fall

Yesterday took me to Columbus for some antiquing and for a stroll around Franklin Park Conservatory.

It was surprisingly quiet at Franklin Park and I thoroughly enjoyed wandering around the facility and grounds in search of the colors and textures of this season.

This is one of my favorite trees in the world but it’s especially beautiful right now.

They do a great job with colorful outdoor exhibits that can be enjoyed by day and by night when they are lit for a family friendly Halloween event.

There are a couple of pumpkin houses – one made for the small fry and the other big enough for grown ups.

There’s an extensive model railroad with a variety of trains and village pieces tucked into the landscaping.

And lots of pumpkins and jack-o-lanterns.

Plus, there are some fun Halloween decorations here and there.

This is a safe space to explore with your kids, a lovely spot to meander with your own thoughts and a beautiful place to stroll and catch up with a friend.

I spent most of my time outside yesterday but there’s a lot to see inside too. Want to learn more? Click here to visit their website.
