Well-supervised children welcome, but paths are uneven, rocky, and slippery; wear sturdy sneakers with good traction.
Many garden areas are inaccessible to strollers and wheelchairs due to narrow, muddy, or uneven surfaces; contact ahead if you have mobility concerns.
The garden requests quiet indoor voices and muted cell phones to preserve the peaceful atmosphere.
Picnicking is allowed at café tables and designated picnic spots; carry out all trash and leave coolers and recreational equipment at home.
