Green Oasis in Oak Park
This place is heaven. I went here on Sunday and I absolutely enjoyed myself. From the outside this place looks small, but you quickly step inside a leafy green oasis. Even for a weekend visit the place wasn't crowded and I only crossed one other couple in there. I didn't expect to spend a whole hour here & I'm looking forward to going back already. They also have parrots! Skipper, Sara & George! George was super vocal & adorable. Admission is free & street parking nearby is free. The inside is pretty warm & humid for the plants so expect to sweat a little. There's a cute back area that looks like it will be fun for kids. I definitely recommend going & enjoying yourself!

Amazing
I've lived in Oak Park for over 20 years and have sort of forgotten about the Oak Park Conservatory. I recently went on a visit with my sister and was amazed! Is so beautiful and perfect for admiring unusual species of flowers and plants. Be sure to take your kids to the room with the talking birds......so fun!

my memories of living down the street from the Conservatory
I as a kid grew up on East Ave. so was a staple to go visit on a rainy day. small but very nice as a kid was so kool to see the trees and building a nice place; you will enjoy. nice park across the street.
