HortPark
HortPark is a one-stop gardening resource hub that brings together gardening-related, recreational, educational, research and retail activities under one big canopy in a park setting. It also serves as a knowledge centre on plants and gardening, providing planting ideas and solutions, and offering a platform for the horticulture industry to share best practices and showcase garden designs, products and services.
Popular with gardening enthusiasts, families and community groups who yearn for a tranquil environment in which to relax, it is also frequently visited by nature lovers who enjoy exercising along the Southern Ridges.
