This Garden In New York Will Be In Full Bloom Soon And It’s An Extraordinary Sight To See
As the grey skies fade away and spring begins to bring new life to upstate New York, it’s a great time to check out some of the many hidden natural areas throughout the state that stun visitors with their scenic beauty. One of those destinations is Sycamore Hill Gardens, a gorgeous series of gardens in Marcellus, New York, on the northeast side of the Finger Lakes region.

These beautiful gardens outside Syracuse, New York, contain nearly 40 acres of diverse plant life, along with koi ponds, stonework, and a hedge maze.
Head upstate and take a garden tour to see some of these gorgeous gardens for yourself. As soon as you get a look at the stunning color across the grounds, you'll be glad you made the trip.
The Hanfords first settled down in the area in 1971 after moving from Texas. After spending years cultivating a farm, they began creating the gardens in the 1990s and have been growing it ever since.
The gardens are also occasionally opened up as a fundraising venue for local nonprofits like the Baltimore Woods Nature Center and Central New York Land Trust.
While you’re in the area, check out Marcellus Park and Baltimore Woods Nature Center. Or head south to the Finger Lakes for a weekend of adventure, whether it’s on the water or the wine trails!
