The JC Raulston Arboretum Welcomes Spring!
Chase away your winter blues and welcome spring at the JCRA! What better way than with the wit and wisdom of the late Beverley Nichols, one of Britain's most beloved garden writers. Nichols scholar and actor, Roy Dicks brings Beverley Nichols' musings to brilliant life as he reads from Merry Hall, Down the Garden Path, Garden Open Tomorrow, and other well-known works. Sip hot cider, munch on homemade goodies, and find your favorite Nichols books at the JCRA Bookstore
