Visit our garden throughout the growing season!
Stop by for an informal visit or short tour of the garden during one of our volunteer workdays. During the growing season (March through mid-November), we are open mornings on Monday, Thursday and some Saturdays. We also have evening hours on many Thursdays. Check out our Public Events calendar for specific days and times the garden is open for drop-in visits.
