Cottage Garden

The Cottage Garden recalls the use of space and plants surrounding country homes which provided herbs, vegetables, fruit and flowers for daily use. A large variety of plants were grown on nearly every inch of soil with space left between gardens for a path leading to the front door.

The K-State Cottage Garden is in the Visitors Center garden on the east side next to the stone building. It extends from a little north of the majestic elm tree, across the front of the Visitors Center and around the corner to the pergola.
