Want to visit The Children’s Garden? Find us in downtown Lima


The Children’s Garden is located in the 600 block of West Market Street, behind the Allen County Museum in Lima, Ohio. If you want to visit the garden, you’ll find it sitting between the parking lots of the Allen County Museum and the Lima Public Library. We are the “back yard” of the historic MacDonell House. The geographical location of the garden creates a unique opportunity to solidify an informal educational campus that includes the museum and library. It is also located one block from St. Rita’s Medical Center.

The Children’s Garden is open May through October, from dawn till dusk.
