Fall Foliage Tour

-

The Pocantico Center

Tickets: $30 (+$2.50 ticketing fee)

Pocantico’s vast campus is home to thousands of trees, including both indigenous and imported species. Towering beauties like beechnut, cherry, Japanese maple, and wisteria embellish the visual landscape, capture carbon, protect against erosion, and provide habitats for local wildlife.

As the leaves begin to change and brilliant fall colors emerge, guests are invited to wander the grounds with arborist Peter Strom, who will share insights about the histories, life cycles, and care of the estate’s robust tree life.

The rain date for this event is Thursday, October 20. 

Tickets to all Pocantico events must be obtained in advance on our website. To prevent the spread of Covid-19, we strongly recommend that masks are worn in all indoor spaces at The Pocantico Center.
