Arbor Weekend
April 27, 10:00 am –3:00 pm
Suggested Ages: All
The gardens of Wave Hill include some of the largest and most unusual trees in all of New York City.
In honor of Arbor Day, celebrate the large and unusual trees in the gardens with walks, hands-on experiences, kid-friendly activities and more. Arborists from Almstead Tree, Shrub & Lawn Care are back to host the Junior Arborist Station, where ages 5-15 don tree-climbing harnesses and hardhats and ascend into the canopy of our old sugar maple tree.
Visit some of Wave Hill’s treasured trees and have a tactile experience making rubbings of the many textures of bark. Then, frame and decorate your designs to take home.
