What People Are Saying

I have lived in this area all my life and didn't know this wonderful place was in oak park and it's free! The staff was nice and the scenery is beautiful 😍

Lemons the size of your face!!!

Giant koi!!! What's not to love! The Conservatory is a great place to escape the winter chill, a pouring rain, or the summer heat. Something is always in bloom! Strollers allowed! And donations accepted but not required. Make sure you sign in at the front desk!

Really impressive conservatory for a small town. Includes 3 large rooms with a wide variety of plants. The new(ish) outdoor play area is really nice, too, and is a great way to teach kids about local greenery! best part is it’s free!

Great place for a children’s birthday party!

Heather and Ivory were lovely to work with and the private outdoor space is so nice. With the gardens as entertainment you can’t beat this place for the under $700 rental price tag.

The Conservatory is a gem!

Three lovely showrooms highlight Mediterranean, Tropical, and Desert plants. The Tropical room is home to three parrots who enjoy chatting with the public; they are cared for very well. There is no fee to enter the Conservatory, though a $5 donation per person is recommended. Keep in mind that it's closed on Mondays and a few major holidays.The Conservatory is a lovely oasis to enjoy and rest in!
