The trails at Bullington Gardens are closed to the public while undergoing repairs from Hurricane Helene. However, if you want a quiet place to absorb and reflect and enjoy nature, the garden is open. We are grateful for the support and love from the community during this difficult time for Western North Carolina. Our hearts go out to all the families and communities affected. W.N.C. Strong.
