If you love spending time in your garden, you already know the power of fresh air, movement, and being surrounded by nature. Gardening is one of the best ways to stay active while connecting with the natural world — but what if you could bring that same sense of wellness and wonder to a family day out?
Busch Gardens Tampa Bay and AdventHealth are making that possible by teaming up to help families embrace healthy living while exploring the great outdoors. Through this partnership, they’re turning a visit to the park into an opportunity to move, learn, and enjoy nature in a whole new way.
Bringing Wellness to the Great Outdoors
Let’s face it: It can be tough to squeeze in a little nature and fresh air when life gets busy. That’s why Busch Gardens, already a fantastic spot for animal encounters and thrilling rides, is now adding even more health-focused elements to encourage movement and outdoor fun.
Visitors can expect to see new spaces and activities designed to keep families active. Whether you’re walking through lush gardens, enjoying interactive wellness experiences, or simply soaking in the fresh air while watching the flamingos strut their stuff, it’s all about making movement feel effortless and enjoyable.
The Power of Nature and Movement
Science tells us that time spent outdoors isn’t just good for our bodies — it’s great for our minds, too. Walking through green spaces can lower stress, boost mood, and even improve focus. Pair that with a little movement, and you’ve got a recipe for a healthier, happier family.
By integrating wellness into a park visit, AdventHealth and Busch Gardens are making it easier than ever to turn a simple day out into a meaningful, health-boosting experience. Whether it’s strolling through the park, climbing a play structure, or just getting lost in the beauty of nature, these small moments of movement add up in big ways.
Encouraging Kids to Explore and Learn
For families with young children, this initiative is also a great opportunity to teach them about the importance of caring for their bodies and the environment. Busch Gardens already provides hands-on animal encounters and conservation education, and now it’s adding wellness education. It’s a win-win: Kids get inspired to move more, and they also learn how caring for nature goes hand in hand with caring for ourselves.
