Mount Pisgah Arboretum’s vibrant program of guided tours and workshops has been providing accessible and engaging educational opportunities for the local community for decades. Our programs are led by local experts and passionate educators.

Our tours connect people with the natural wonders of Mount Pisgah, while our workshops offer in-depth learning experiences and opportunities to develop new skills.
