Join us on Thursday, September 18th for a special day with our Historic Fletcher Steele Garden Tour as part of Essex Heritage Trails and Sails and then stay for Afternoon Tea at Rolling Ridge. Fletcher Steele is recognized as one of the most influential landscape architects of the early twentieth century. For 60 years Steele practiced landscape architecture as a fine art, designing nearly 700 gardens in his lifetime. The garden at Rolling Ridge was the first of his creations.

Although the fountain is no longer in operation and the grounds are being restored, you will discover the visionary genius of Steele as we walk the grounds and appreciate the natural beauty of this 38 acre peninsula along Lake Cochichewick.
