Solar Flower Garden

Welcome to the Solar Flower Garden

We're not your typical garden. We're a unique urban garden that connects visitors to the environment and sustainability. The Solar Flower Garden at Cobb EMC is a 6,000-square-foot oasis showcasing Smartflowers – solar flowers that produce clean energy, or what we like to call flower power. These energized blooms are saving carbon, supporting solar and brightening our community.

Join us in the garden

The Solar Flower Garden was created as a gathering place for our community. We offer educational opportunities and events, plus admission is free. We're open from dawn until dusk. So, stop by and see us! We're located at Cobb EMC's headquarters. Get directions.

We're on a mission

We're a small garden on a big mission: to inspire an appreciation for our environment and show that we're committed to clean energy in our community. Cobb EMC is proud to partner with our friends from Gas South to bring you the Solar Flower Garden.
