The Arboretum's newest feature, located by the Marion Andrus Learning Center, is both a wonderful play destination for young families and a rich "idea place" for preschools, childcares and family backyards.
Children's Wonder Garden
San Antonio Botanical Gardens Family Adventure Garden
The Family Adventure Garden will be a place for children to explore water, wildlife, and local nature that exists in the San Antonio region. Jesse Turner, while Design Coordinator at The Natural Learning Initiative, consulted with SWA Group and Terra Design Studios on the preparation of the design program, engagement with stakeholders, and the schematic design. We prepared a gallery of precedent images, presented our research and relevant work, and worked with the team to develop a detailed list of programmatic elements for the new garden.
The Southern Highlands Reserve
Sheep Harney Nature Hut
We worked with teachers, school administrators, and Earlyspace LLC to prepare design and construction drawings for the Sheep Harney Elementary School early childhood outdoor learning environment. The Nature Hut is a special component where kids will be provided with found natural objects to use in their play and learning activities.
