Item Description

4 passes to Native Plant Trust Garden in the Woods, New England's premier native plant garden, featuring over 1,000 species of native plants, many of which are rare or endangered. Each pass may be presented for one complimentary admission to Garden in the Woods.

Garden in the Woods is a 45 acre woodland botanical garden located at 180 Hemenway Road, in Framingham, Massachusetts, United States.

It is the headquarters of the New England Wild Flower Society, and open to visitors between April 15 and October 31. A guided tour (free with admission to the garden) is given every weekday at 10 a.m. and at 2 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.

The Garden in the Woods was founded in 1931, when Will C. Curtis purchased 30 acres (121,000 m²) in north Framingham, and began to create a botanical garden on the site. When Curtis died in 1965, the land and gardens were deeded to the New England Wild Flower Society. The Garden is the largest landscaped collection of wildflowers in New England, containing over 1700 kinds of plants representing about 1000 species, including over 200 rare and endangered native species, all nestled within a mature oak forest on glacial terrain of rolling hills, ponds, and streams that provide a variety of microhabitats. The Garden in the Woods also contains the largest retail native plant nursery in New England.

Garden in the Woods, 180 Hemenway Road, Framingham, MA 01701.
