• Due to the uneven paths and stairways, strollers are not permitted in the garden. For your convenience, we offer stroller parking on the East Terrace.
• At all times, children must be accompanied by an adult.
• Keep cell phones in silent mode so all visitors can enjoy our quiet oasis. Please refrain from playing music.
• The only animals permitted in the garden other than Greenwood’s own collection are certified service animals. 
• At all times, clothing and shoes must be worn. No sunbathing.
• Garden photography is permitted so long as it does not interfere with the on-site experience of other visitors, such as blocking pathways and views. The use of drones, tripods, screens, and props is not permitted.
• Formal posed photography and special occasion photography is not permitted. This includes weddings, engagements, pregnancies, birthdays, proms, graduations, family portraits, and other similar events, whether by professional, semi-pro, or amateur photographers. Greenwood reserves the right to determine what constitutes a formal posed photography session and will curtail sessions that do not fit our guidelines noted above.
• Food and non-alcoholic beverages may be enjoyed in Adelaide’s only. Personal water bottles are permitted in the garden. Please note: Adelaide’s is an outdoor covered pavilion where you can enjoy the food and beverages you bring with you. Snacks and hot/cold drinks are also available for purchase in the Welcome Center.
• Do not enter pond or water features, climb or touch statuary, enter areas that are roped off, or obstruct pathways.
• Refrain from picking flowers or berries, entering or disturbing plant beds and borders, and climbing trees.
• Refrain from smoking, vaping, making fires, and playing active sports.
• Bicycles and scooters are not permitted anywhere on the property.
