This place really jumpstarted my Christmas spirit! I was here in MS to visit my sister and her…read morefamily for the Thanksgiving holiday and she took me around. We needed to get her front porch decorated before I left to come back to Texas. This place has nice, healthy looking, live Christmas trees, wreaths and garland outside in the front and inside is like a Christmas wonderland. They sell high quality patio furniture and they had all their sets decorated with Christmas pillows. They had the artificial trees inside as well, beautifully decorated in themes so there was something for every taste. There is also an employee at a table that hand makes this fabulous, big bows for larger than life outdoor decor and she will custom make garland and wreaths for you. If you want a one of a kind entryway decor this is the place to come.

I had purchased a flower from Green Oak on old Canton Road before, and everyone raved about it,…read more then I purchased another flower from them, I paid $425.52 for both flowers, this last flower, probably costed $239.00, but looked liked it costed $50.00, my family member sent me a picture of it, so I called the flower shop and all they were willing to do was send a plant to the family, I'm embarrassed, I'm hurt, and annoyed, if my family member had not had sent me that picture, they would have gotten away with i, World you need to check the flowers you send, the flower shop I believe is sending out Substandard flowers, and still charging us regular price, II'm a Senior Citizen, and I'm Disabled, is this what we're doing to our elderly, I feel hurt, annoyed, and abused, when you don't have what you need to do what the customer want, you should call and ask them what they want to do? Pick another one you have, or cancel the order, what so ever you soweth that shall you reap, remember God is watching, you know you should have refunded me my money back, but maybe you do the right thing with anyone willing to do business with you, because I won't be doing anymore business with you, that's why I left the last place, and I send a lot of flowers out. If people treated people like they like to be treated, the World would be a better place.

I mentioned it politely as I walked out trying to give them a second chance but the woman just smiled and waved goodbye. There were people around but it was impossible to tell if any of them were workers or if they were landscape contractors and none offered to help. It was a weekday afternoon and not real busy ... maybe I caught them on a bad day. I was disappointed I made a trip all the way there are zero service.

This park is magical; one day I was researching parks in the area and stumbled upon this nature…read morecenter. I had no idea that it existed, but I am glad that it does. There isn't a ton of nature trails in the area or in the city of Jackson, but this place is a huge hidden gem. I felt at peace doing some morning hiking with my little one, Sneakers. We were the only ones in the park at 7:00 AM which is opening and we spotted deers grazing. It was beautiful. The trails are clearly marked and a few paths are accessible, except for the path leading to the Elephant Tree. That trail abruptly stops and doesn't follow through as the trail is covered with overgrown grass and trees. I came back with my boyfriend and he loved the park too. Every inch of the park is marked with informational nature facts. What I loved the most is that majority of the plants, trees, including the lichen is marked with names. If I tell you the amount of botanical or arboretums that I visited in my life fails to have this specific and minor detail is astounding. Thankfully Clinton Nature park did not disappoint to educate the masses on this note. They are actively teaching the people. I love that so much! The trails towards the left of the entrance even connects into nearby library which is a nice touch after reading a couple of books. In the evenings, the park doesn't get much attraction so hiking is a straight shoot and can be done at any pace. The left sided trails are more accessible, some with stairs, so not so much for the wheelchair bound. The park is maintained by a volunteer crew and I am sure they accept recommendations to make the space more accessible for all individuals to enjoy. I actually am planning to visit again the next time I'm in town. I love this nature park immensely. I hope more people can learn about this creative space and not sleep on it too much longer!

*SPLAT* "EWW... Oh…read morehell, what was that?" as you tromp your way down the gravel trail in the woods... thankfully you realize it wasn't a frog after all, just some strange remains of a nameless prehistoric looking insect. You move on... walking over bridges, through "gullies", around "loops" and eventually taking a wrong turn onto an "Indian Trail", or as I'd like to call it, a "bog" full of mud. If you get out of there alive you may be able to make it to the "butterfly garden" and over the pond bridge to safety... Until of course you sit down next to a giant black snake hanging out by the water and run past a group of first graders yelling "AH! OH MY GOD! I ALMOST SAT ON IT! ALMOST SAT ON THE SNAKE!" Be careful of the sneaky squirrels who like to hide in the bushes until you arrive so they can jump out and make much noise and scare you. They act like they are afraid but don't let them fool you, they know precisely what they are doing. If you kick every bush along the trail sometimes you get to surprise them instead. These are just some things you may encounter while walking on Clinton Nature Center trails... I walk here for an hour almost everyday now and it is a new adventure every time. Usually I am the only one here... And I can jog for a little bit without being made fun of. There are some places that you can continuously walk up and down hills if you want. I make myself seriously sore every time. There are many trails branching off too so you can tailor your route to your liking. They have a information center that has animals and exhibits that I haven't been in yet. Today there were approximately 30 six year-olds inside screaming and yelling, so needless to say I stayed far away... There's signs everywhere on the trails identifying types of plants and trees, historical sites (old trace's, postal routes, first African American school in Clinton), and lots of info on wildlife. Good place to bring kids or someone who's interested in nature.

The admission prices are cheap. There are many types of gardens and it's very beautiful. There are different hours for different seasons, so check the website to see what time they are open. It's also a lovely place for weddings, but you local people should know better than having an outdoor wedding in the depth of a Mississippi summer! It's much lovelier in spring/fall.
