The Arboretum is full of plants that can be used to make alcohol. We have the classics like grapes, hops, and juniper, as well as ingredients for more obscure liquors and liqueurs like sweet birch, spruce, and bamboo. Join Manager of Adult Programming and Events Sarah Nechamen for a walk to explore these plants and the spirits they create.
This program unfortunately does not involve sampling alcoholic beverages.
Accessibility: This walk will include paved roads, mulch paths, and mowed grass. We will ascend and descend some gradual hills.
