Explore Together is a fun, family-friendly program designed to help visitors of all ages discover the beauty of the Ruth Bancroft Garden while enjoying quality time outdoors. Whether you’re visiting with family or friends, this program invites you to explore the Garden at your own pace and immerse yourself in its stunning array of plants and landscapes.

To guide your journey, you can pick up a self-guided tour brochure at the entrance gate, or download the tour digitally here.
