Nature has a way of telling stories words can’t. Today marks the North American debut of The Berlin Wall exhibition at Union Station Kansas City, and we’re honored that Powell Gardens and Powell Gardens Colonial Farms helped bring this powerful story to life through our botanical installation, Seeds of Change. 🌱

Inspired by the resilience of nature and the human stories woven throughout the Cold War, the installation contrasts two worlds: one side barren and lifeless, the other lush and thriving — a reflection of division, hope, and renewal.

Thank you to our partners at Union Station Kansas City for inviting us to be part of this immersive experience. Here’s a little behind-the-scenes look from our CEO Cody before opening night. We hope you’ll come experience it for yourself!
