About

Yew Dell Botanical Gardens (Yew Dell) has a rich history as one of Kentucky's horticultural gems. Today, Yew Dell is dedicated to serving the

community as a 60-acre botanical garden and nationally-recognized center of gardening and sustainable horticulture, welcoming more than 30,000 annual visitors and establishing ourselves as one of the top 20 tourist destinations in greater Louisville. We offer stunning display gardens, perform research and testing on new plant varieties, promote sustainable landscape plant selection and management, and provide public education programs and reasonably-priced community events, such as our annual Plant Sale & Garden Market, Yuletide, and Boo Dell, hands-on gardening workshops, plant walks, and weekly Children in the Dell program, among many others. Most importantly, Yew Dell offers something for everyone - homeowners, beginning gardeners, green industry professionals, children and families - whether they come to enjoy the gardens, arboretum, hiking trails, educational programs, or special events. Yew Dell is recognized on the National Register of Historic Places and has been listed as a Top 10 U.S. Destination Garden by Horticulture Magazine.
