Saturday, May 3rd 11:00 AM

Join us Saturday, May 3rd at 11 am for a group tour of the Delaware Botanic Garden at Pepper Creek in Dagboro, DE.  

This is a walking tour at a leisurely pace, usually lasting about 1 hour and 15 minutes - a bit longer for enthusiasts with lots of interesting questions!  This tour is complimentary for Arden Club members. Non-members: $15 entrance fee and $10 for the tour.

On this tour, our group will see the world-renowned Piet Oudolf 2-acre meadow with an estimated 170,000 spring-flowering bulbs, perennials, and grasses.  We are invited to enjoy additional time in the gardens after the tour to visit The Folly Garden featuring homestead farming, the restored saltwater marsh, the freshwater wetland, the learning garden, and vernal ponds, encompassing 12.5 acres of woodlands, gentle paths, edge gardens, and a living shoreline.  DBG has many completed and ongoing environmentally sustainable initiatives to experience.    Other details:  There is a picnic area, and we are encouraged to bring lunch and beverages.  The on-site store has water but no food.

Travel time from The Ardens is a little under 2 hours each way, and we would like to meet at the entrance by 10:45. We must arrange carpools individually.  To facilitate this, we can meet at the Gild Hall parking lot at 8:40 to leave sharply at 8:45!  Or, if you are meeting us there separately, let us know.  Either way, please remember to rsvp by April 23!
