Greenwood Gardens Connecting people with nature and the arts in a historic garden oasis. Short Hills, NJ
Advanced ticket purchase advised.
2026 Season ~ May 1st to November 8th

Located less than an hour from Manhattan, Greenwood Gardens connects people with nature and the arts in a historic garden oasis. At Greenwood, you will be stepping back through 100 years of history to encounter formal terraced gardens, Arts and Crafts follies, stately fountains, hidden grottoes, romantic woodlands, and winding paths. You can take in the sights and sounds of nature at its best, vis

it with our turkeys and geese, and linger on a comfortable bench. Our hope is that during your time at Greenwood, you will experience the revitalization of all your senses. Formerly the private estate of the Day and Blanchard families, Greenwood is supported by gifts, membership, and volunteers.
