Explore the Gardens
The Gardens at Gantz Farm is a collection of unique herb gardens divided into sections that illustrate how herbal gardens have evolved over the years.
Typical of Ohio in the 1840s when the Gantz farmhouse was built, this kitchen garden demonstrated herbs with multiple uses, heirloom vegetables and old fruit varieties that could be preserved and stored for winter.
Representing trends from the late 20th century, the forms and materials in this garden change. Curving walls and walks of wire-cut brick contrast with the old brick of the Garden of Yesterday and geometric forms of the Garden of Tomorrow. Emphasizing the uses of plant products and the relationships between plants.
