MILFORD, PA — A guided walk through the Grey Towers landscape will be held on Saturday, October 7, at 10 a.m. Visitors will get an up-close look at the brilliant fall foliage in the estate gardens during “Evolution of the Grey Towers Landscape: Autumn in Cornelia’s Gardens.”
The walk will feature the fabulous foliage displays of the native shrubs, the Japanese maples and the European copper beeches planted by Gov. Gifford Pinchot, among other favorites. Grey Towers horticulturist Elizabeth Hawke will provide an inside look at how some of the landscape plants, trees and buildings were incorporated into the design of the 1886-French Chateau mansion estate by the Pinchot family. Group size is limited and pre-registration is strongly recommended by calling 570/296-9630; the fee, payable by cash on the day of the tour, is $8; $7 for seniors.
Participants should meet in the Visitor Pavilion in the Grey Towers parking lot. Dress for the weather and wear comfortable shoes. The walk will be held rain or shine. For more information visit www.fs.usda.gov/greytowers.
