Our construction crew has been hard at work this July, carefully arranging our large rock features like puzzle pieces in a fairytale landscape. Foundational touches are taking shape in Dendy Village, and inside The Cottage (our future Learning and Engagement Center), exciting progress is unfolding behind the scenes. The tree house is growing, too, with new additions taking it to new heights. Piece by piece, the magic is falling into place. We can’t wait to see what the next month brings!

Coming Spring 2026, The Wanderwood Gardens is an enchanting setting for discovery and imaginative play. This new children’s garden will cultivate children’s relationships with the outdoors through interacting with the natural and manmade playgrounds surrounding them. The gardens are filled with a variety of flowers, trees, and plants, with magical activity areas and winding paths that lead to hidden nooks and crannies, creating an active nature’s playground for all ages. The Wanderwood Gardens will be connected to The Dubuque Arboretum and located at 3800 Arboretum Dr in Dubuque, Iowa. Follow @wanderwoodgardens on Facebook and Instagram!
