Westchester County Open Days

Unlocking the gates to America’s best private gardens since 1995, The Garden Conservancy’s Open Days Program’s 2008 season features more than 300 gardens from coast to coast, including 22 in Westchester County from April to November. Admission fees at each garden support the expansion of the Open Days Program around the country and helps build awareness of the Garden Conservancy’s work of preserving exceptional American gardens such as Rocky Hills - The Garden of William & Henriette Suhr in Mount Kisco, as well as a dozen other preservation projects.
