We are open six days per week (closed Tuesdays) through May 30, weather permitting. While some COVID related restrictions remain in place, there are opportunities most mornings for the public to visit, but reservations are required.

Because each hour-long session is limited to 10 people, we anticipate selling out most mornings, so register soon if you are interested!
