Cowbridge Physic Garden

Okay kiddo, have you ever heard of a garden where you can learn about different plants and how they can help people? That's exactly what the Cowbridge Physic Garden is all about!

It's called a "physic" garden because it's all about "physic" or "medicine" plants. See, different plants can be used to help people feel better. For example, some plants can be used to make medicines that help fight sickness.

The Cowbridge Physic Garden is a special kind of garden where all the plants are those that can be used for medicine. They have over 150 different kinds of plants there, and each one has a special story to tell!

Some of the plants were used way back in history by doctors and healers. They would use the plants to make treatments for different illnesses. Other plants are still used today in modern medicine, but scientists have learned how to make them in a lab instead of using the plant itself.

The garden is a really cool place to visit if you're interested in nature, plants, and maybe even a little bit of science. You can learn all sorts of things about how plants can help us feel better and how they've been used over hundreds of years. Plus, it's just a really pretty place to spend some time and enjoy the outdoors!
