Lilac Lovers Join us Today, Thursday 5/26, 1-4pm, or Saturday 5/28! Mid-season lilacs are showing great, late-season are beginning to show, and some early-season blooms are still with us if shaded partly.

A few spots are still open for:
Saturday 5/28, 10am – 12pm: Lilac Talk & Tour
Sponsored by Topsfield Cultural Council ~ Thank you!
10am – 11am: Bring your lilac questions! Indoor slideshow presentation illustrates the development of our lilac collection and accessible trails.

11am – 12pm: Tour the Accessible Lilac Collection at your own pace. The guided tour will cover 0.25 mile distance, rain or shine. Questions and curiosity encouraged!

Saturday 5/28, 4pm – 6pm: Meet & Eat
Bring a brown bag snack or supper to our 10-person picnic table. Meet with Karl & Mary, and friends. Learn more about the gardens, the social support programs, and how you might like to become involved as a friend, guest, mentor, volunteer, or donor.

Our wheelchair-accessible trails provide access for walker- and wheelchair-users to enjoy 50 lilac shrubs in 3 garden loops (approximately 0.25 mile walking/wheeling distance). Early-, Mid-, and Late-season lilacs bloom for eight weeks, starting in late April and ending in June.
Free-of-Charge. Donations appreciated. Reservations required, as parking is limited.
