A living sanctuary for plants, pollinators, and people.
Every space is thoughtfully designed to showcase plants that not only delight the senses but also sustain pollinators, birds, and wildlife. Here, you’ll find blooming color, peaceful pathways, and a vibrant harmony between people and nature.
Blooming Since 2018
Nestled in the heart of North Florida, Hearthstone Botanical Gardens offers a 35-acre sanctuary filled with thoughtfully curated gardens—each designed to educate, inspire, and connect.
Founded by Judee Mundy, our gardens have an extensive variety of plants which offer abundant educational opportunities for children, adults, landscape designers, and home gardeners. Our species selections reflect the rich North Florida palette. Plants are groomed seasonally with the help of our passionate volunteers. Stop by today—we look forward to meeting you!

Every Path Leads to Discovery
As you wander through the gardens, you'll feel the peace and balance that come from being in harmony with nature. It’s a place to reflect, reconnect, and rediscover our vital connection to the natural world.
The on-site Learning Center hosts educational programs and hands-on workshops, while the serene walking trail around Mirror Lake invites peaceful reflection and leads into scenic paths through majestic cypress woods. Whether you're here to learn, explore, or simply soak in the sights and sounds of nature, you’ll also find abundant opportunities for birding and quiet discovery throughout the grounds.
Upcoming Events
There’s always something blooming at Hearthstone Botanical Gardens! Throughout the year, we host seasonal celebrations, family-friendly festivals, hands-on workshops, and special gatherings that bring our community together in the beauty of nature.
Community Roots, Lasting Impact
Every flower planted, nature trail maintained, and event hosted at Hearthstone Botanical Gardens is possible because of people like you. By giving your time, talents, or support, you help our gardens flourish as a place of beauty, learning, and connection.
