Housed in a state-of-the-art 90,000 sq metre glass house, The Arium is the biggest plant nursery in Leeds and one of a kind as it grows all plants on-site in four specially designed and temperature-controlled growing zones.

The Arium Cafe sells a selection of locally-sourced food and drink including a kid’s lunch box. Sit back and enjoy your surroundings with stunning views of the plants in the glass house.

Kids can blow off some steam in the play area equipped with climbing frames, slides, an excavator and sand-pit situated next to the picnic area.

No visit is complete without a visit to the Arium Shop which sells a range of plant and gardening supplies including tools, bulbs, seeds, pots.
