Calendar of Events

Learn from gardening experts the how-to steps to make gardening at your home a little easier and more rewarding. We are hosting three one hour sessions, meeting outdoors in the Deer Pond Farm pollinator garden for free. We’ll start at the ground level with the soil and work our way up to seed collecting. Each family friendly program offers tips that are easy to put into action and expert instructions and demonstrations.

Before or after the program, stop at the kiosk for a trail map with suggested hikes and enjoy the 835-acre sanctuary.
