Sunken Gardens Forever

🦩 A new way to experience the flock!
We’re excited to share that Sunken Gardens has introduced a brand-new Flamingo Experience, giving guests the opportunity to get even closer to one of the Gardens’ most iconic residents!
This one feels especially exciting for us at the Sunken Gardens Forever Foundation. 💚 Restock the Flock was the Foundation’s very first project, helping bring a new flock of Chilean flamingos to Sunken Gardens. Seeing the flock continue to be such a special part of the Gardens and the guest experience makes us incredibly proud of where that first project has led. 🦩
During this new 30-minute experience, guests can enter the flamingos’ tropical habitat, learn from the Gardens’ animal care team, and even have the opportunity to feed the flock.
Tickets are $40 per person, plus regular Garden admission, and must be purchased in person on the day of your visit on a first-come, first-served basis.
Learn more about the Flamingo Experience, including times, age requirements, and everything to know before your visit:

We can’t wait to see visitors making new memories with the flock! 🦩🌿

What’s Blooming Wednesday 🌺🌿

There’s always something beautiful blooming at Sunken Gardens! We took a walk around the Gardens recently and captured just a few of the colorful blooms.

Which one is your favorite? 🌸

Some people show up to play. Others show up simply because they believe in what we’re doing. 💚

We want to give a very special thank you to David and Becky Ramsey for their incredibly generous support of our golf tournament. Although they won’t be joining us on the course this year, they still chose to give and help make this event a success.

It’s a wonderful reminder that Sunken Gardens is more than just the Gardens—we are also the people who love it, support it, and help it grow. 🌿

David and Becky, thank you for being part of that community and for supporting us even from off the course. Your generosity means more than you know.

⛳️🌺 You don’t have to play to make a difference. If you’d like to support the tournament through a sponsorship or donation, we’d love to have you be part of it, too.

🦩 Our first major accomplishment.

This milestone reflects what our mission is all about—supporting projects that preserve, enhance, and celebrate the beauty, history, and wildlife of this St. Petersburg treasure.

Every donation, sponsorship, and event participation helps make meaningful projects like this possible.

Thank you for helping us continue to make a lasting impact, one project at a time. 💚
