This weekend we’ll be celebrating the harvest of the Garden with crafts, food tastings, games, and more! Join in the fun as we celebrate the three Roman goddesses that grace the Garden. Originally installed on the façade of the 2nd Horticulture Hall in Boston. In 2020 these goddesses received a much needed cleaning and restoration. The tallest statue, standing at 13 feet tall, is Ceres—the goddess of agriculture. To her right is Pomona—goddess of fruit—holding a cornucopia full of fruits. On the left side stands Flora—the goddess of flowers—with a bouquet of flowers in her hand.
Saturday, September 24 & Sunday, September 25 from 10am-2pm
Dress like a goddess and receive free admission to the Garden.
