Come Share the Joy!

Step into Fred Heutte Garden—Norfolk’s urban garden—where community, accessibility, and education come together in a vibrant, welcoming space. From children discovering the wonder of nature during hands-on activities to Norfolk’s citizens gathering for Fred Talks and workshops, every moment reflects our commitment to offering free environmental and horticultural programming for all. Here, barriers are removed, curiosity is encouraged, and people of all ages and backgrounds can connect with the natural world and one another. The Fred is more than a garden—it’s a shared community resource where learning, belonging, and stewardship grow side by side.
