$5th Annual Ar-\u201cbeer\u201d-etum Wetlands & Gardens Tour$

Join Oaklands Mansion for a unique experience on the grounds of Oaklands Park and Arboretum. Explore this Nationally Registered historic and pre-historic site, now open as a public park. Along the pathways, you will find multiple beer sampling stations provided by downtown Murfreesboro’s Liquid Smoke. Their expert staff members have chosen beer with notes that highlight the trees you will find along the way. You will be guided through the park by Connor Moss, Master Gardener at Oaklands Mansion and Liquid Smoke’s own Gavin Stark as they detail Oaklands Arboretum and the specialty beers that will accompany them.
“Oaklands Park is downtown Murfreesboro’s largest public green space and home to a natural wetland area, a rarity for such a densely populated community,” says Connor Moss. “The park provides a fascinating study area for both its wildlife and plant-life, and late April is a wonderful time to visit.”
Admission for the grounds and beer tour is $35.00 per person; a portion of the proceeds will benefit the maintenance and preservation of the grounds and arboretum. Reservations are required as space is limited. Please be aware that the entirety of the grounds tour will take place outside and require extensive walking. Allow one hour for the tour and dress appropriately for the weather.
After your grounds tour, you are welcome to explore the mansion where staff members will be available to answer questions. Hear the Quarterlife band in the mansion’s backyard garden and be sure the visit the Cannabus as well! The Hot Dog Guy will also be selling a variety of hot dogs. Cigars and beer will also be available for purchase on the mansion’s back patio. Tickets must be purchased online in advance.
This event will take place on Sunday, April 13, 2025, from 2:00PM – 5:00PM by reservation only. Oaklands Mansion is nestled in Oaklands Park, a native tree arboretum and natural wetlands, which includes Maney Spring as well as heritage and native gardens. The self-guided grounds tour will include an overview of the arboretum, wetlands and gardens.
