There are other ways to identify trees than the shape of their leaves, making winter a great time for a Tree Tour.
We’ll leave no branch unturned in this tour of trees at Gore Place! Join us as we get to the root of both the science and history of individual trees and species on our grounds. Along the way, we'll point out some of the most noticeable and iconic trees near our historic mansion and you'll learn the basics of identifying trees. For December, the focus will be evergreens.
Hopefully, our educators won’t be stumped by any of your questions!
This tour will take place outdoors for an hour. We will be walking over a combination of gravel paths and potentially wet, gently rolling lawn. Please wear footwear you will be comfortable in and dress for the weather. The tour is designed for adults; however, we welcome youth aged six and up to join us. This program is rain or shine but we will cancel for extreme inclement weather.
Advance tickets are required. Ample free parking.
