This special New Year Tree Tour will feature homemade hot chocolate from Farmer Scott!

We’ll leaf no branch unturned in this tour of trees at Gore Place. Join us to get to the root of both the science and history of individual trees and species on our grounds. We will lead you on a walk pointing out some of the most noticeable and iconic trees nearest our historic Mansion. In addition, we’ll learn some of the basics of identifying trees. Hopefully, our educators won’t be stumped by any of your questions.

This tour will take place outdoors for an hour.  We will be walking over a combination of gravel paths and potentially wet, gently rolling lawn. Please wear footwear you will be comfortable in and dress for the weather. The tour is designed for adults; however, we welcome youth aged six and up to join us. This program is rain or shine but we will cancel for extreme inclement weather.

This special New Year tour will be open to a maximum of 40 guests split into two groups.

Advance tickets are required. Ample free parking.

"My favorite thing about Gore Place is the tours. Even though the path through the Mansion is the same, every tour is different, and I learn something new every time."
