Inniswood Metro Gardens was once the 37-acre estate of sisters Grace and Mary Innis, who enjoyed gardening and wildlife. The Innis sisters’ desire to preserve and enhance their gardens and woodlands for the enjoyment of all people resulted in the generous donation of their home and property to Metro Parks in 1972. The sisters’ former home, the Innis House, is the site for education programs, a non-lending horticulture library and staff offices.
Over 300 members strong, our fun, energetic and dedicated volunteers provide hundreds of hours of service each month and are crucial to the success of Inniswood Metro Gardens. Everything from outdoor gardening and greenhouse operations, to special events and programming welcome your helping hands.

Additionally IGS members assist with the promotion of Inniswood by sponsoring horticultural programs for its members and the public.
