Senior Garden Tour & Plant Potting Activity
Tuesday, September 16, 10 – 11:30am
Seniors are invited to NH Audubon’s Massabesic Center, 26 Audubon Way, Auburn to experience the newly constructed All-Persons Trail on a private tour of the Demonstration Gardens. Join us for this special guided meander through native pollinator gardens including a monarch waystation, bird friendly gardens, vegetable and herb gardens, and a rain garden. You will also enjoy our luscious Wedding Garden and experience a Garden for the Senses. We will stroll the gardens in small groups with UNH Extension Master Gardener volunteers on a level, hard packed, mobility friendly path, geared to visitors with a wide array of physical abilities. In addition to the beautiful gardens and pollinator habitat, keep an eye on the sky as we enjoy the wildlife that NH Audubon has to offer at this beautiful and accessible sanctuary. Our pace will be slow with plenty of opportunities for photos should you be inspired. Finish your visit with a free potting activity where you may choose a fall chrysanthemum (mum) flower to pot up and take home to decorate your space and reminisce about your experience here at the Massabesic Center.
This event is FREE but limited to 40 participants - registration is required. Funding was provided through a generous grant from the University of New Hampshire Cooperative Extension Master Gardeners Alumni Association.
Note: If you attended the June spring tour, we invite you to return for this September event to view the late summer blooms and foliage.
Rain Date: Wednesday, September 17, 10 – 11:30am
