NNJ - Guided Tour of Leonard J. Buck Rock Garden, Far Hills, NJ
About this event
"Geology and horticulture working together in a way that few places in New Jersey can match”
Join us on July 16th, for a 1 ½ mile tour of the Leonard J. Buck Garden, one of the premier rock gardens in the eastern United States.
Begun in the late 1930s, the garden has reached a breathtaking point of maturity. It consists of a series of alpine and woodland gardens situated in a 33-acre wooded stream valley. Tucked among the rocks are rare and exotic rock garden plants. The wooded trails connecting the outcroppings are lined with beautiful wild flowers.
Optional Lunch after at a nearby restaurant. Bring cash for lunch as we will split the check.
$15 for guided tour. Please register.
