The Aldridge Gardens are a botanical sanctuary dedicated to education, conservation, and inclusion for all when it comes to the outdoors. Their idea of accessibility to all is highlighted by the fact that there is no entrance fee to experience the gardens and all they have to offer. If you are wanting to fish the lake or bring your dog for a walk, you can only do these two activities from Monday through Thursday. The weekends are just for those wishing to walk the nature loop and view the gardens.
