We look forward to exploring Sonnenberg Gardens & Mansion State Historic Site.

Whether strolling through its flower-filled gardens or touring its magnificent mansion, Sonnenberg Gardens and Mansion State Historic Park is a very special place. The 50-acre estate is one of just two public gardens in all of the New York State Parks System. A serene respite just blocks away from downtown Canandaigua, Sonnenberg is a gift to the community from Frederick Ferris and Mary Clark Thompson. This couple of the Gilded Age created Sonnenberg (Sunny Hill in German) as their Victorian summer home. It is now a beautiful summer escape visited by tens of thousands of people each year.  Sonnenberg is one of the few Country Place Era Estates remaining in the United States. It is distinctive for its extraordinary collections of period architecture, garden statuary, themed gardens of the world including a Japanese Garden and Teahouse, and a Lord & Burnham Greenhouse Complex.

NYSNLA's Professional Development/CNLP Committee has arranged for an informative guided tour of the property. Following the tour, attendees will be allowed to do a little exploring before we conclude and go enjoy some social and networking time.
