Visit the Gardens by Appointment


Everyone you will ever meet knows something you don't.” Bill Nye 



  Would you like to visit Distant Hill Gardens but haven't been able to make it on a day that we are open to the public?


Schedule a Self-guided Tour of the Gardens

We realize many of you would love to visit the Gardens, but can't make it on one of our very limited 'Open Garden' weekend days. If you would like to visit Distant Hill Gardens on a day we are not open to the public please Contact Us with a date and time. If Michael is available he will confirm the date and you can tour the gardens at your own pace for up to two hours.
