Phipps' Play Farmers' Market is included with regular Conservatory admission.
In our Play Farmers' Market, children can find toy food, shopping carts and cash registers. An array of fruits and vegetables are displayed in the room for kids to choose from, add to their cart and check out at the register! Located in the Gallery Room, the Play Market takes advantage of the child's natural interest in food to introduce what real food looks like. It also allows children to model their parent's behavior to reinforce the connection between the garden and the market.
Furthering this connection, the nearby Tropical Fruit and Spice Room and Rooftop Edible Garden showcase what familiar foods such as bananas, oranges, lettuce, rice and cinnamon look like when they are growing.
