About

Denver Botanic Gardens Chatfield Farms is a stunning 700-acre working farm and natural area in Littleton at the base of the Rocky Mountain foothills, offering families a completely different experience from the urban York Street location. Kids can explore seasonal gardens, observe farm animals, walk nature trails through wetlands and meadows, and participate in farm-based education programs throughout the year. Spring brings wildflowers and newborn animals, summer offers vast gardens to explore, and fall transforms the farm into a popular corn maze destination.
