Our garden and surrounding landscape lend themselves to the expression of beauty and joy in a multitude of ways. To this end, we host events on the farm to celebrate seasonal milestones and calendar highlights. Events are generally hosted by our team, sometimes in conjunction with experts in the field. Depending on the activity, additional costs may apply. Please see our schedule of events for specifics.
