Know Before You Go:
- Consider Carpooling! Parking lot space is limited, and you may have to park along the access road. Parking attendants will guide you. If you need to drop-off a handicapped member of your party, please let the attendant know, and they will help you accordingly.
- Bring a Flashlight. Though the Garden features many lights, you may find it helpful to have extra to guide along certain paths.
- Bring a Candy Bag. A limited supply of bags will be available for a small fee, but it’s best to bring your own to collect from our Candy Stations.
