December News
As we enter the winter season we hope you will continue to find the Cathedral's Gardens a Haven of Peace.
The Gardens remain open - or you may visit us online.
Bishop's Garden Tour now available as a Podcast
All Hallows Guild has just launched a Podcast! Our first episode is available to listen or download via PodBean. We plan to make The Cathedral Gardens Podcast available soon on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Episode #1 is an audio tour of the Bishop's Garden.
During the pandemic, the gardens and grounds have remained open to the public, but our docents are not giving in-person guided tours. Now you can download the podcast and listen as you take a walking tour of the garden - or enjoy the experience virtually while listening from home.
How the Bishop's Garden Remains a Showstopper
A student recently asked All Hallows Guild for information about garden practices, pest control, and maintenance.

This prompted us to interview Ms. Adrienne Schopf, staff horticulturist for the Bishop’s Garden. Her responses reveal not only the constant work necessary to maintain this treasure, but also the environmental care evident in pest management practices. 
The Cathedral Celebrations of Advent and Christmas
The Cathedral is welcoming you to celebrate Advent and Christmas with them virtually.

The Bishop’s Garden will be the backdrop for the Virtual Family Christmas Service when animals from the manger gather in the Garden for a festive re-telling of the Christmas story. Use the following link for more information about all of the Cathedral’s Advent and Christmas Services:
