Linton's Enchanted Gardens - the "Disney" of Garden Centers
Linton’s is often called “the Disney of Garden Centers,” and you will find over nine acres of rare and unusual plants to inspire your own garden. Don’t miss the Vera Bradley inspired Quilt Garden.
And of course if it is referred to as “Disney” it would have to include features for the kids, so make sure your visit allows time for the train, petting zoo, and interactive activities.
Lunch and shopping are also available on the premises. Plan to make a day of it!
