MILFORD, PA — A special landscape tour offered on Saturday, July 18 at 1:30 p.m., “Evolution of the Grey Towers Landscape: Summertime in Cornelia’s Gardens,” will feature Grey Towers horticulturist Elizabeth Hawke and an inside look at how some of the landscape plants, trees and buildings were incorporated into the design of the 1886 French Chateauesque mansion estate by the Pinchot family. Special features on view will include an outdoor dining table made of water and a meeting room that used to be a child’s playhouse.

Participants should meet in the Visitor Pavilion in the Grey Towers parking lot. Dress appropriately for hot and humid weather; wear comfortable shoes. Water bottles are suggested.
