Celebrate spring with a beautiful morning of walking, flowers, and friendship!

We’ll begin with a scenic 2–3 mile walk at Irwin Park. Afterward, we’ll drive (can carpool) about one mile (3 minutes) to Lee Garden, where a member of the Beautification League will lead us on a guided tour and share the fascinating history of New Canaan’s treasured garden—at the height of its bloom.

Following the tour, those who wish can join a relaxed potluck lunch at Ellen Cumming’s home, just a short walk from the garden.  If you plan to attend the lunch, please bring a dish and drop it off at Ellen’s on your way to Lee Garden by 11:20 AM.

Enjoy fresh air, vibrant blossoms, and great company—what better way to welcome spring?
