Experience Snug Harbor’s gardens in a whole new way this summer! Choose your own adventure: a tour, a workshop, or a tour + workshop combo.
Explore the beauty of the ever-changing Perennial Garden at the height of its season on the Perennial Garden and Carl Grillo Glass House Tour! Perennials vary in lifespan from three to fifty years, creating a dynamic environment which changes with each year’s growing cycle. Then, visit the Carl Grillo Glass House, a space that is typically closed to the public. Built on the site of the original Sailors’ Snug Harbor greenhouse, the 2,800-square-foot enclosure is used for propagation and exhibition of rare and beautiful plants.
Excited to learn more? Stick around for the Tiny Gardens Workshop from 3:30 PM – 5:00 PM!
