Please note: as a Private Property, we have designated dates and times we are open, and are not allowing visitors outside those times.
This ticket includes: Entry to our Private Gardens. Stay as long as you like within the open hours.
This ticket does not include: Any refreshments (you may bring your own, purchase in our Garden Shop, or bring a picnic to enjoy in the fields). Entry to our Cutting Garden, English Garden or tunnel area (they are currently closed for refurbishment)
As with all events, kindly remember the following:
A ticket is required for entry.
All smoking, chewing, vaping or other of any substance, including tobacco, cannabis, or anything else consumed in this fashion is strictly prohibited. This is for the safety and comfort of all guests, staff, and our plants.
Laughing Goat Botanical Gardens does not allow pets on the property, and ask that you leave your pets at home, as cars on hot days are not a safe place for animals.
Walk only on designated paths, walkways, or structures designed for walking. Our ground is uneven in the fields, and so sturdy footwear is strongly suggested. Please help us protect the integrity of our soils and our plants' health by staying out of garden beds, planting areas, and rows where plants are growing.
We do not guarantee what flowers are in bloom, as bloom times are both cyclical in nature, and guided by the seasons. We have no control over when, and how many blooms open each day, or on the day you choose to visit.
We are not a You-Pick site, and the only flowers available to take home will be in our Garden Shop, for purchase.
Guests that display harassment, or rude behavior towards other guests, or to staff, will be asked to immediately leave. We will not tolerate abusive behavior in any form. We reserve the right to reserve service to anyone, at any time.
All tickets are non-refundable.
Some Frequently Asked Questions/Important to Know:
1. Do I need a ticket to view the Peonies in Bloom?
Yes. All events are ticketed, our gardens are private, and a ticket will be required to enter the physical gardens. However, you do not need a ticket to just visit The Garden Shop.
2. Can I cut Peonies?
We are not a You-Pick farm, and do not allow guests to cut or pick our plants, for a variety of reasons, including health and safety of guests, and for the plants. We will have cut Peonies available for purchase in The Garden Shop.
3. Will I be able to purchase Peonies?
We will have cut peonies available to purchase in The Garden Shop. This is the only place our cut peonies are currently available.
4. Can I purchase a ticket to see the Peonies at the Shop?
We will be offering only the ticket to walk in the gardens in The Garden Shop, but encourage you to purchase your tickets in advance, and will offer a lower price in advance. Tickets for our Peony Tea absolutely must be bought in advance for our hard-working vendors that supply the food items. Like us, they are a small, family-owned business who do not have the ability to take on last-minute orders.
5. Can I bring my dog to the Gardens?
No, we are sorry, but we do not allow pets in the Gardens, or on the property.
6. Can I bring a picnic to enjoy in the Peony Fields?
Yes, always allowed and encouraged, if that is something you like to do. You will need to bring all your own supplies, and please clean up after yourself. Our Courtyard tables are reserved exclusively for our Peony Tea guests, and so a picnic is truly an al fresco situation for you out in the fields.
Please kindly remember the following:
We are strict about no-smoking, vaping, or chewing of any form of tobacco, nicotine product, CBD or marijuana on property. Anyone found in violation will be asked to leave.
All guests must park in the designated parking area(s), which are just past the barn and blacktop area. Our parking is gravel, so please drive slowly.
This is an open-air, outside, walking event. We do not cancel in the event of rain, clouds, wind, etc. Please dress accordingly for walking around a working farm being transitioned into botanical garden spaces, and bear in mind that we have a variety of walking surfaces, including some uneven bits in the fields.
*Some parts of the Gardens will be closed for this event. This includes the Cutting Garden/Tunnel area, and the English Garden, as they are actively under construction.
