A journey to explore four beautiful gardens and lanDscapes

2025 GARDEN WALK

Nature's Palette

Imagine spending a day on the farm just minutes from the city. Step into this breathtaking 170-acre historic treasure, where a twisted willow trellis marks the entrance to a charming chef’s garden. At the heart of this space stands a grand Italian urn that awaits the farm’s seasonal bounty. This serene setting features rolling hay fields, vibrant vegetable gardens, native meadows, historic barns, and a majestic 315-year-old Burr Oak tree. 

Elegant Estate

Picture a stately driveway flanked by hundred-year-old trees with cattle grazing in the pastures on either side as you enter this elegant farm estate. The property is a gardener’s delight complete with a greenhouse that is home to 50-year old orchids, a formal garden, boxwood topiaries, as well as a vegetable garden, and a magical treehouse nestled in a forest of oak trees.

Whispering Willows

Peacefulness transcends this five-acre award winning shade garden. Imagine a canopy to shade a darling Wind in the Willows garden complete with Mr. Toad, Badger, Rat, and Mole overlooking a magical black natural dyed koi pond with a bubbler, bird feeders, and a wood duck house. This beautiful garden estate is one of over 6,500 gardens documented in the Archives of American Gardens which is managed by the Smithsonian Institution Gardens.

Creekside Oasis

There is nothing more soothing than the sound of water, and this beautiful creek-side oasis provides a peaceful sanctuary to relax and enjoy nature’s beauty. On this 1.5-acre property you will hear the soothing sounds of a water feature as you follow the garden path that wonders along the creek bed, which is home to many great blue herons that build their nests in the towering sycamore trees. Among the many plants that call this beautiful garden home, you will find golden Japanese forest grass, scarlet fire dogwood, Japanese maple tree, and a plethora of shade loving hostas.
