Botanical Gardens
Situated on nearly 20-acres is a retreat of old Florida flora and fauna
far removed from the bustle of the city. Cool, quiet and serene, the
Botanical Gardens is the perfect backdrop for a leisurely stroll or an
active tour.
Both the pavilion and Gardens are ideal venues for private celebrations,
such as weddings and parties. Join the Ft. Pierce Jazz and Blues
Society concerts every other Wednesday evening, or bring the kiddies
to our monthly Saturday morning Junior Gardener programs. Our
summer boutique plant sales are a community favorite, as is our
annual Botanical Garden Festival and Plant Sale.
Operated by the Friends of the Port St. Lucie Botanical Gardens,
a non-profit organization, members of the Friends are committed
to the growth and development of the PSL Botanical Gardens as
an educational and recreational destination in Port St. Lucie for all
residents and visitors. Join the Friends and enjoy exclusive events
and celebrations, as well as discounts in our gift shop.
