I've shared our visits to Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park several times. Our daughter and SIL have given us a season pass for a few years, so we are able to enjoy frequent visits there.
We always try to get there in the Fall because they decorate it so beautifully. I can't even wrap my head around how many pumpkins and mums they have all over the gardens.
Here's a few photos of how beautiful it looked this year.
This sculpture is at the entrance. It's one I enjoy, because you can see different silhouettes depending on the angle you are looking at it from.
This is a sculpture of a weaver spider, which is always there, but seems quite fitting this time of year.
These pumpkins were huge!
Do you see the heron out there?
It was a perfect weather day; sunshine, temps in the high 60's, and a lovely place to enjoy the Autumn beauty God gave us.

Dear Mari, what a magnificent place. I love the decorations and Autumn 🍂 colours. The spider 🕷 is so cool, and yes, I see the egret. They are beautiful and majestic birds. Thank you so much for sharing this lovely tour.
A feast for the eyes! Absolutely stunning!
You got some wonderful photos!! I love the big pumpkins with the yellow tree behind them. And the pumpkin towers! And the photo with the mums and iron wheel is so stunning. I even think I see a Great White Heron!
How beautiful that is. I see two heads in the sculpture - love th spider. And the pumpkins were gigantic!
Hi Mari! Meijer Gardens looks like a great place to visit. That is so nice that your daughter gave you a season pass! I hope you have a good week!
Hi Mari, I loved all the fall pictures. Looks like you had a great time!
So much eye candy to see. Loved the pumpkin towers, the mum with the cornstalks and even that spider. Those pumpkins were huge for sure. The bakery north of us had two 600 lb pumpkins that they dropped from a crane yesterday. What a mess they made when they came down on the parking lot. Janice
What a charming place to visit. The colors and child statues delight the eye and the gate is so idyllic. The sun so beautifully illuminates everything.
This place captures the essence of fall, Mari. I enjoyed each and every photo you shared here today!
Such wonderful pictures, Mari. I'm so glad that you were xx able to enjoy a day out in beautiful weather.
So beautiful
Stunning Mari !
What an amazingly gorgeous place to visit. I think I would be the MadSnapper there !
Your photos look like they should be on a calendar.

Meijer Gardens look like a great place to visit and I can see why you like it so much there. Those pumpkins are amazing, so big and what pretty photos!
That is so beautiful! I'm sure you have enjoyed visiting there! I can't get over how big those pumpkins are! There were some at the state fair that were almost 1,000 lbs! I wondered how on earth they got them there, and what they do when they start to go bad! Oh my!
Fall is my favorite time of year! Those mums are gorgeous as well! I enjoyed visiting your blog today!
What a wonderful place to visit and walk around. Beautiful photos.
We had roasted sausage and veggies this evening too! :) And yes it is one of my favorite meals!!
What a beautiful place! I like the decor with the pumpkins, mums, and kale.
So very beautiful (even in July!!). Thanks for sharing your photos with us. I can only imagine how beautiful it is in person! xo
Your passes are a wonderful gift. Everything is so beautiful. The groundskeepers do a fantastic job! I love the pumpkin "trees".
Oh, I'm blown away by the beautiful colors! I absolutely love it.
So nice!
STUNNING! I'm so grateful you visited in the Fall so I could see it in the prettiest season of all too! What a gift of a place. 🍁🧡
So beautiful, your photographs are wonderful.
