Trip to Master Gardeners, Cornell Cooperative Extension Dutchess County, and Innisfree Garden, Millbrook with Bedford Audubon's Lynn Becker
Depart Bylane Farm, 35 Todd Road, Katonah at 9 am. With Lynn Becker, Bedford Audubon's Native Garden Committee Chair as our guide, we'll first explore Dutchess County's Master Gardens, Cornell Cooperative Extension's site. CCE, which celebrates its 100th Anniversary this year, provides research-based resources, tools, and education for the residents and officials of the communities in which they operate. Afterwards, we'll visit the exquisite 150-acre Innisfree Garden, where the ancient art of Chinese landscape design has been reinterpreted to create a unique American garden. Bring cash - entrance fee to Innisfree is $4, and we'll have lunch at a nearby restaurant. Level of difficulty: easy.
