Check out our Google Map, where you'll find garden-related attractions. Here are just a few of the options for you to choose from.
Take a leisurely looped walk on the fully-accessible Universal Trail (Carstairs Tract) on Bowmanton Road in the Northumberland County Forest, where interpretive signage is placed along the way, denoting special plantings.
Stop into the village of Hastings to get cut flowers from Sweet Bees Cut Flowers and pick up an ice cream while you're there. If you're hungry while you're in the area, check out McGillicafey's Pub & Eatery, Lady B's Bistro or Bridgewater Coffee and Pizza.
At the end of May, the Warkworth Lilac Festival celebrates these purple blossoms that are a sure sign of Spring. You will be introduced to over 70 types of lilacs as you meander down the Millennium Trail. Take some extra time to pop into the shops of downtown Warkworth or grab a bite at one of the local cafés.
In the summer, consider a stop at Laveanne Lavender Fields filled with over 80 varieties of lavender. Lavender-themed food events and shelves of lavender products are available for purchase. Also, best time to visit is in July for blossoms; harvesting is at the end of the month. Bus tours can call ahead to coordinate parking and organized visits.
