About Pinecrest Gardens

Pinecrest Gardens is a beloved botanical garden and city park set on the former grounds of the historic Parrot Jungle attraction. Visitors wander tropical gardens, watch peacocks roam freely, cool off at the splash pad, and let kids meet farm animals at the petting zoo.

The grounds also include an open-air amphitheater hosting concerts and performances, a weekly farmers market, and educational programs for children and adults. Located at 11000 Red Road in Pinecrest, the park draws locals for weekend markets and playground time as much as it draws visitors curious about its botanical collection and event calendar.

With shaded walking paths, picnic areas, and a lineup of festivals like the annual holiday light show, Pinecrest Gardens works equally well as a quiet nature outing or a lively family day. It's an accessible, walkable green space with something happening nearly every week, from garden club meetings to jazz concerts in the bowl.
