The Friends of the Horticulture Farm invite you to a delightful walk through our beautiful Rhododendron collection with curator Paul Wieczoreck. This collection represents plants that are more than 35 years old and are some of the largest specimens growing in northern Vermont. Part of our historical past, they are much like what would have been found on the great estates of the early 20th century. Bring your questions and your camera and enjoy this spectacular display of color. Refreshments after the tour. Visitor limit is 25. FREE .EMG-E
