Gardner

Gardner lies on the rolling prairie of northeastern Kansas, where Johnson County’s suburban growth gives way to fields and broad horizons. Part of the Kansas City metropolitan area, it retains a distinct small-town center and a strong link to America’s westward expansion. Nearby Gardner Junction marks the point where the Oregon and California trails separated from the Santa Fe Trail in the mid-19th century. That historic crossing placed the community on routes used by emigrants and traders heading west. Today, Gardner balances this trail heritage with the practical character of a growing Kansas City-area community.
