Café Sci
Café Sci removes science from the lecture hall into a cozy, fireside discussion. The goal is to engage the public in science in a non-traditional way. At Café Scientifique, a scientist introduces a current, science-related topic and then opens the floor for discussion. Café Scientifique is held once a month, usually on the 4th Thursday of the month, from 7-9 p.m.

Garden Store
Take home a piece of the Arboretum!

Our volunteer-staffed Garden Store features products produced by the many volunteer groups at the Cox Arboretum MetroPark such as the Wood Workers, African Violet Group, Herb Group and the Rock Wall Group, to name a few.

Find unique gifts or garden accessories such as hand crafted potting benches, hypertufa planting containers, organically grown herb plants and heirloom vegetable plants.

The Garden Store is an excellent source for gardening reference books, children’s garden activity books and kits, botanical themed gifts, jewelry, and stationary.

Basic tools and volunteer tested and recommended items are also available, such as the Soil Knife and natural Shea Butter Handcreme.

Featured MerchandiseYou'll also find plants propagated from tested specimens at the Arboretum and proven hardy for this area, as well as natives and wild flowers from our woodland and prairie collections. Often, seasonal specialties such as forced bulbs and butterfly garden plants can be found.

Additionally, we carry cold beverages, light snack items and local raw honey from our hives when available.

Items listed here are subject to availability and may not be in stock upon your visit. To check on a specific item, call us at the Garden Store at 937-275-5053.

All proceeds from the non-profit volunteer staffed store benefit Cox Arboretum Foundation.
