Children’s Garden at Long Hill & Sedgwick Gardens

In May, The Trustees of Reservations invited kids and their families to the opening day of the Children’s Garden at Long Hill and Sedgwick Gardens in Beverly! Kids planted colorful, annual flowers and organic vegetables in the magical Children’s Garden. They were invited to plant one or as many as they could! This past week I visited the Children’s Garden and marveled at its beauty. The Children’s Garden at Long Hill is not only great for children, it’s also great for families. Its simplicity in design is brilliant! Take a peek.
