From Mark Bridgen, Pi Alpha Xi faculty advisor:
Pi Alpha Xi, the national Honor Society for Horticulture at Cornell University, is organizing a weekend trip to Longwood Gardens, Winterthur Garden Museum, and Chanticleer Gardens in southeast Pennsylvania for the weekend of March 21-23.
This guided excursion is an educational and entertaining way to visit these premier gardens with others who enjoy horticulture. This very affordable package trip includes hotel accommodations for two nights, bus transportation to/from Ithaca, breakfasts, guided tours, and admission to the gardens.
The trip will include a behind-the-scenes tour of the production greenhouses and facilities at Longwood, the famous ‘March Bank’ at Winterhur, and a pre-season peek of Chanticleer led by Erin McKeon, who graduated from Cornell’s Public Garden Leadership program last year.
Space is limited, and you need to register by March 6 to reserve a seat on this trip.
More information and registration directions.
