Event Description:

Sunday, July 30, 3-5pm
"(Walking) Tour of a Vanished Greenhouse Complex" with Castle Museum chief historian Tom Trombley

Throughout his work, Roethke incorporated references to the extensive greenhouses of his family’s floral business. They were demolished 60 years ago, however, the houses that replaced them still provide clues to their existence. The
half-mile walk will explore the neighborhood and use photographs, tape measures and Roethke’s poems to bring these vanished greenhouses to life.

$12. Savoy chocolate cake and coffee.
Reservations required. 989-928-0430.
