The Garden sustained significant damage as a result of the recent heavy rain events.  The creek rose to unprecedented levels and runoff water from neighboring streets rushed through the heart of the Garden.

The results were washed-out pathways, large deposits of sand, stone and debris throughout the Garden, shorted-out electrical systems, the loss of a 160 year old oak tree and two electric guest transportation carts under three feet of water.

  • Heavy Equipment & Operator – $2,400
