The Landscape Show offers

The Landscape Show’s Nature Pavilion

Connect with Nature at The Landscape Show with a walk-through, a specially created forest of trees and woodland plantings. Forest therapy simply means spending time among trees and has proven to reduce stress, lower heart rate and blood pressure and increase the immune system.

The Landscape Show’s Conversation Corners

Spend time in The Landscape Show’s two conversation corners to connect with colleagues, hear stories of the past year and share important ideas and information. Each area will showcase a landscape which adds to interpersonal and community connections with nature, while increasing the value of one’s environment.
