There’s a certain kind of excitement that only comes to life when the world is in bloom. A walk in the park can urge you to drop your worries and reconnect with the space around you.
That’s why we’re fans of taking trips to many a local nursery and flower shop. So whether you need a quick pick-me-up on your lunch break or just want to get lost for a Saturday, check out this list of some of our favorite green spots.
