The Toledo Botanical Garden is a benchmark against which similar gardens are measured throughout the country, and with good reason. This is considered to be one of the pioneering gardens because of its dramatically beautiful visual and natural presentation. Fragrant meadows of sunflowers and wildflowers, rose gardens, herb gardens and sharply manicured walkways make spending time here something special for the entire family. Also, the kids will especially love visiting the recreated pioneer garden which many consider to be one of the site's main attractions.
There's fresh, and then there's farm fresh, and that is most definitely what you will find when you shop at the Toledo Farmer's Market. This group of vendors is well worth finding, as they are located within the same area as the Erie Street Market which is indoors, but there are various vendors who set up tents in and around the area. You will find an unmatched selection of homegrown produce and herbs as well as baked goods, handmade crafts, plants and fresh cut flowers.
Rev it up in a fun Alexis go-kart, play a challenging round of miniature golf, swing around in the batting cages or get jolted as you steer your bumper car around at the popular Par 2 Golf Courses. This is a great family fun recreation destination that offers not only an excellent choice of fun activities, but also a generous concession area as well as place for parents to comfortably wait for the kids to finish their trek on the go-kart or bumper car tracks.
