Be inspired
Who says plants are just for the garden? You can find inspiration with our holiday decor that uses leaves, flowers, fruits, and more! And our staff is happy to discuss applying these ideas at home. We’ll have our traditional kids craft to make during your visit or you can take it home to enjoy this activity later.

It’s not the holidays without hot cocoa and cider. These, along with a delicious seasonal menu, will be available for purchase at our on-site café: Martha Lee’s Kitchen.
