Whether you’re an avid gardener or just a flower lover, this field trip to Chicago’s annual garden show is a great way to get a taste of spring. Celebrate “Hort Couture” as you browse more than 25 themed display gardens. Check out gourmet cooking demonstrations, attend gardening seminars and stroll through a marketplace of more than 100 gardening and horticulture-related exhibitors. Then step outdoors to enjoy Chicago’s Historic Navy PierĀ® on Lake Michigan. The pier has it all: rides, restaurants, shopping, dining cruises and more.
Trip cost includes a continental breakfast with warm bagels, fresh fruit, coffee, milk and juice in the U.S. Bank Gathering Place. Your fee also includes transportation on restroom-equipped motor coaches, beverages donated by PepsiAmericas, and a snack bag on the return trip. (Note to those with allergies: snacks may include dairy and peanut byproducts.)
