Meadowlark Botanical Gardens is a beautiful oasis in suburban Fairfax County. It is open year-round and features 3.5 miles of paved trails and 1.5 miles of unpaved nature trails. There is a nominal entrance fee of $6 for adults and $3 for kids and seniors. Please refer to the park website for opening hours; they vary throughout the year.

The cache is hidden towards the back of the park, near #20-21 on the park map (which you can pick up at the ticket window). It should be fairly easy to find, especially if you are familiar with caching.

The container is a translucent lock-n-lock. Please rehide as found. Initial contents included a humorous FTF prize, $2 WG bill, and my Seward's Folly TB. Muggle count is high during the spring and summer.
