the Gardens at Hippley Village.
Hubby surprised me last Saturday with a visit to this lovely botanical garden situated in the small town of Columbiana, Ohio. It was established in 1997 when three acres were purchased and designed into a beautiful sanctuary for folks to just wander through and enjoy.
The gnomes greet one and summon you to look inside the small structures sprinkled around the grounds...
a Koi pond is filled with color...
Snow White and the seven dwarfs...
characters from the Wizard of Oz make this a delightful place for children to roam...
as well a doll house filled with vintage baby dolls sitting in strollers and on rocking horses.
a train garden is close by nestled near the end of the trail.
Soft music from the 70's plays through speakers as you move around enjoying all the wonderful details that were created.
I have many more photos but will finish with this last part - 3 D brick people that pay tribute to the couple who started this project the Hippley's.
Hope you had a nice time visiting Hippley Village. Thank you for stopping by.
Hugs
Debbie
