Dow Gardens is a historic estate-based garden and cultural site in Midland, Michigan, comprising 110 acres dedicated to curated landscapes, education, and the arts. Founded in 1899 by Herbert H. and Grace A. Dow and their family, it now welcomes more than 130,000 visitors annually. The grounds are organized into the Estate Garden, Exploration Garden, and Whiting Forest, and offer opportunities to explore the landscape, join hands-on educational programs, and tour the Pines Home. 

The organization operates in the zoos and botanical gardens sector, serving visitors seeking nature, learning, and cultural experiences in a relaxed setting. A notable development is the Whiting Forest component, which will provide a canopy walk four stories high and, upon completion, is described as the nation’s longest forest canopy walk; in 2021, Dow Gardens and Whiting Forest were recognized with a 2020 American Architecture Award by The Chicago Athenaeum and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
