The Flower and Garden Festival has always been our favorite! It’s the perfect opportunity to escape the cold, snow-covered north for a look at a fresh spring start. While the flowers and topiaries are breathtaking, the outdoor kitchens shine with diverse flavors that are waiting to be explored all around Epcot.
