Stroll through the natural oasis within Wing Haven Garden & Bird Sanctuary, SEED Wildlife & Children’s Garden, and the Elizabeth Lawrence House & Garden.

Wing Haven resides on Ridgewood Avenue. Ten homes, a wildlife respite, and blooming gardens remain intact amidst the bustle of Myers Park — built by and for the people of Charlotte.

“I want Wing Haven to be a sanctuary for the community,” said Susan Evans, Development Director of Wing Haven.
