Winter Wonder at the Arboretum

Tours with the Director

Join Arboretum Director, Susan Goodell, for a free one-hour tour of the Arboretum.
January 17, 11am – You may think that the garden sleeps in the winter but there is
plenty of life at the Arboretum. Take a walk and learn about some of the plants that
make an impact at this time of the year.

Exploring the Arboretum in the Winter

It may be the dark days of winter but that doesn’t mean that the Arboretum isn’t lively
and lovely. Explore the Arboretum’s winter treasures on your own with the help of our
seasonal tour write-up: Winter Stroll.
