Monk Botanical Gardens

Monk Botanical Gardens has been providing a peaceful, natural space open to the public for 20 years. Described as Wausau’s Happy Place, the gardens are perfect for aimlessly wandering among the diverse plant life, manicured by the caring volunteers who spend their time and put their heart into each garden bed. The Monk Botanical Gardens host yoga with the Wausau Area Yoga Association, offer summer camps, field trips, and preschool for kids.
