Shop at the Gardens Now Open at DBG!

Yet another BRAND NEW experience is waiting for you at Denver Botanic Gardens. DBG has opened a new gift shop, Shop at the Gardens. The entire gift shop was re-designed from the ground up to offer our visitors the most sustainable, creative, unique garden and gift products in Denver. Come shop an extensive collection of gifts and toys for children, unique jewelry, garden and cook books, apparel, affordable gifts made from the most cutting-edge sustainable materials and packaging, plants and other items sure to be found nowhere else in Denver. Plus, you give back to the Gardens when you shop with us. Proceeds from the gift shop help fund Gardens’ programming for the community.

Chuck McGlothlin (above), is the shop manager and buyer. He and his very capable staff are here to help you select just the right gift for yourself, someone you love or for your home!

Shop at the Gardens is open year-round during regular Gardens hours and is located in the new Bonfils-Stanton Visitor Center. Admission to the Shop at the Gardens and all parking is free. We’ll not only offer you the most unique gifts in the City of Denver, we’ll make it easy for you to shop with us as well.

Think all-natural gifts.
Think plants and gardening supplies.
Think affordable, relevant offerings.

Shop over 10,000 items that have been personally selected by our staff to reflect the Gardens’ core values of sustainability, transformation, diversity and relevance. Look forward to seeing you soon.

Our New Visitor Center Welcomes You!

The Gardens have never looked better. So much is in bloom thanks to all of the recent rain and the expertise of our horticulturists. Although it may look like things are not fully open at the Gardens when you drive by our entrance on York Street! Rest assured we are open with over 100 new parking spaces available on the lower level (enter on York Street) in our new parking garage. No cost for parking. The parking structure will be opened in phases. The second level, with another 100 spaces, is expected to open in the next few days. Gardens’ staff members and landscape contractors are in the process of planting 6,853 plants, including trees, vines and shrubs, on both sides of and throughout the structure.

And the Bonfils-Stanton Visitor Center is absolutely stunning. When you enter, you can purchase your tickets to the Gardens on your right. Very soon you will be able to purchase your Gardens entry tickets using our new ticketing kiosks. The new Shop at the Gardens gift shop is to your left. You’ll find all-natural gifts, plants, gardening supplies, books, and tons more–even dinosaur slippers for the kids.

And one of the traditions that took place at the old Gatehouse is still in place in our new Visitor Center. Many people in the neighborhood dropped by while walking their dogs and their dog got a treat at the old Gatehouse window.
