Tucked into the foothills above the University of Utah, lies a natural conservatory like no other. Red Butte Gardens is Salt Lake City’s favorite summer concert venue, a gateway to stunning hiking trails, native plant garden center, and plant education destination. These socks are dedicated to the Garden’s twisting pathways and neatly planted rows.
