Queen Creek Botanical Gardens is a nonprofit organization that inspires and educates about elegant edible plants, showing the future of sustainable food production in landscaping. Unique among botanical gardens, all of the plants in the Gardens are edible－fruits, vegetables, herbs or edible flowers have been individually selected for their aesthetic style and elegance. Additionally,the 10-acre Gardens feature the only fully-operational industrial-age water mill in the American Southwest, shops, and themed demonstration gardens. The Gardens provide a place to escape, enjoy the beauty of nature, and learn more about food security through community resources. Future developments at the Gardens include a reception center, and state of the art conservatory with an education center and expanded exhibits.
