Mother’s Day at the Garden

If you're looking for a peaceful way to honour the maternal figures in your life, the Toronto Botanical Garden is hosting a beautiful Mother's Day event that goes beyond the typical brunch.

What's Happening Spend the day wandering through the gardens to see what’s in bloom, or get hands-on with a make-and-take succulent arrangement class. These workshops include tea served in a vintage cup and a hand-made floral cookie—a lovely, thoughtful touch. You can also browse the Mother’s Day Marketplace, which features a curated selection of local, sustainable makers, perfect for finding a unique gift.

Make a Day of It After you've shopped and created, linger at the Dandelion cafe for a bite to eat. The garden shop is also a great stop for live plants, organic seeds, and botanically-inspired home decor to take home.

Practical Info Located at 777 Lawrence Ave E, the Toronto Botanical Garden is a true oasis in the city. It’s a perfect spot to escape the hustle and bustle for a few hours. Be sure to check their website to sign up for the succulent workshops in advance, as they are sure to fill up quickly.
