The von Trapp Greenhouse has closed its doors
and is no longer open to the public.
We are no longer growing plants for spring or summer sales and, except for our
Open Garden Days, our property is closed to the public.
We have reclaimed our home and ask that you respect our privacy.
We do welcome you to visit our private garden on our Open Garden Days.
Come and enjoy the flowers, the view, and the frog fountain,
and chat with Sally and Tobi about all things horticultural.
Our Open Garden Days are organized in collaboration with the MRV Rotary
as a fundraiser for local non-profits.
