位于芝加哥植物园的花园北端,草坪郁郁葱葱,很可爱,与花园的其余部分差不多400英亩(约400英亩),就在美国位于格伦科的41号公路以东。在长满草的山丘周围,是一个有木质攀爬和藏身之处的地方,在木片下有一个精致的软垫地板。普伦德加斯特说,一条浅的圆形溪流,底部光滑,河道狭窄,由上面的岩石构成,形成了“手指和脚趾的水景”。

Located at the north end of the Chicago Botanic Garden’s property, the lawn is lush and lovely, of a piece with the rest of the garden’s nearly 400 acres just east of U.S. Route 41 in Glencoe. Surrounding the grassy hills is an area with wooden climbing and hiding places and a subtly cushioned floor beneath the wood chips. A shallow circular stream, with a smooth bottom and a narrow channel made from rocks above, creates a “fingers and toes water feature,” said Prendergast.

但那只是前面的草坪。新校园的核心部分是新的建筑——学习中心,将近2.7万平方英尺的内部空间,大部分都在中央走廊的教室里。这一建筑取代了长期存在的临时建筑。这些项目包括成人瑜伽和烹饪课程,包括发酵和煲汤,以及为3- 4岁儿童开设的新学前班。

But that’s just the front lawn. The centerpiece of the new campus is the new building, the Learning Center, almost 27,000 square feet of interior space, most in classrooms lining a central hallway. The structure takes the place of long-standing temporary buildings the garden had been using for its education programs.Those programs range from adult yoga and a cooking class about fermentation and bone broth down to a new preschool for 3- and 4-year-olds.

Prendergrast认为,学习中心不会大幅增加花园项目的使用,大多数项目都是在小约瑟夫·雷根斯坦(Joseph Regenstein, Jr.)学校的领导下进行的。每年约有12.5万人参加1500个课程、夏令营、讲座、音乐会和其他活动。

Prendergrast doesn’t think the Learning Center will dramatically increase usage of the garden’s programs, most grouped under the Joseph Regenstein, Jr. School heading. Already about 125,000 people annually take advantage of some 1,500 classes, camps, talks, concerts and other events.
