Woodland Wonders Invites Guests to Slow Down & Reconnect with Nature this Summer
As summer unfolds across northeast Wisconsin, Green Bay Botanical Garden’s Woodland Wonders exhibit presented by Selner Tree & Shrub Care is offering guests a chance to slow down, explore, and reconnect with the natural world.
Now open, Woodland Wonders transforms the Garden into an immersive celebration of forests, trees, and the wonder they inspire. Throughout the summer, the experience continues to evolve as seasonal blooms emerge, garden displays mature, and guests discover new details woven throughout the exhibit.
“Nature has a remarkable ability to help us slow down and see the world differently,” said Laura Nelson, President & CEO of Green Bay Botanical Garden. “Woodland Wonders encourages guests to take a closer look at the beauty, creativity, and sense of discovery that can be found in both forests and gardens.”

Designed for guests of all ages, Woodland Wonders combines horticulture, art by local community members, and hands-on exploration throughout the Garden’s 47 acres. Guests can discover unique artistic installations inspired by the natural world, learn more about trees, forest ecosystems, and garden designs through interpretive displays, and engage with interactive experiences like Discovery Boxes that encourage curiosity and exploration.
Families can extend their adventure through the Garden’s mobile app, which features self-guided tours, audio content, and scavenger hunts designed to help guests uncover hidden stories and details throughout the exhibit.
As the season progresses, Woodland Wonders continues to offer something new with each visit. Summer perennials, woodland-inspired plantings, and ever-changing garden displays provide fresh experiences for returning guests while showcasing the dynamic beauty of the world around.
“One of the most rewarding aspects of gardening and nature is that no two visits are exactly alike,” said Mark Konlock, Director of Horticulture at Green Bay Botanical Garden. “Plants are constantly growing and changing, and Woodland Wonders reflects that sense of discovery throughout the seasons.”
Whether guests are seeking inspiration, family adventure, or simply a peaceful place to spend a summer afternoon in Wisconsin, Woodland Wonders invites them to experience the beauty and wonder of nature in a new way.
Woodland Wonders is included with regular Garden admission and free for Garden members. For more information, including details on garden displays and featured art pieces, visit GBBG.org/WoodlandWonders.
