The Connecticut College Arboretum

The Connecticut College Arboretum is a real local treasure.  The Mystic Garden Club was treated to a tour of the Caroline Black Gardens.  But anyone can enjoy a tour on any Sunday at 2 PM from May to October.  Tours begin from the blue sculpture in front of the Olin Building near the main gate.  The first Sunday is a tour of the Caroline Black Garden.  The second Sunday tour is of the campus gardens and the following Sundays are of the Native Plant Gardens.
A special thanks to Carol Connor and Bodil Meyer for their photos.


The group is admiring the huge redwood tree.
