With fall comes the aroma of pies baking and the sight of leaves turning. These annual delights remind us to nourish ourselves for the long winter ahead – body, mind, and spirit – with the bounty of fall harvest, the beauty of nature changing around us, and the restorative power of the arts. This fall at Tower Hill Botanic Garden, charm all of your senses during our Season of Harvest celebration followed by two beautiful, must-see flower shows. The celebration continues through the solstice and our “Winter Reimagined” for Holly Days – bring family and friends and help us light up the dark like never before. Katherine F. Abbott
